    these tools appear to be "saw sets" they are used to put the "set" in saw teeth. Each alternating tooth is bent slightly to one side of the blade or the other, so the kerf is wider than the blade. This keeps the saw from binding as the cut deepens. I have one of these that my father used for maintaining his hand saws. I do not believe they are used together, as the tool was turned around to do the other side. I could be wrong about that though...

    I agree with TheOldGreybeard. We've always called them "tooth setters."

    Really cool to learn new stuff.Can you imagine just what our Grandfathers would have accomplished if they could have gone down to Home Depot and bought a new blade instead of resetting the teeth and sharpening the old one!

    Thanks.
