These do say Ontario Knife Company on the "spoon" part...I have really searched the internet and cannot seem to find out what they were for...
They are about 6 1/2" long with various handle styles, etc. Any info would really be helpful...Thanks!

They look like carving tools, or ceramic tools.
They are pitting tools, just looked them up.
The ones that are round are melon ballers, the others are fruit pitting spoons. My Grandma gave me hers from when she was a girl and worked in the fruit shed at harvest time. Mine is over 100 years old.
The pointed scooper is a tool used by canary and orchard workers around 1920’s-40’s to pit stone fruit. Pitted peaches for canning and pitted apricots for drying.
