They're things for putting inside elastic bands. Some need to be recaptured.

That was my first thought but they're rather short unless they attach together somehow.

Looks like a standard set of Sutton ribblers to me, used to see em used all the time in the trade, especially amongst the old guard. Half size ones though so you'd be needing to use two at once to get the same pressure and angle as a modern plastic one. Interesting to see them again as I've not seen a repair man using a set of those for 20 years, health and safety put an end to them and years of ribbling stuck-tight knowledge was lost.

I think I was wrong about the previous suggestion. There's no such thing as a cat poke. I've never heard of it and I'm sure nobody else has either.

I reckon it's a pig poke, though.

Brilliant, my friend, quite brilliant.
