It could be used as one one but that's not what it is.

First two are correct

It's leather, so a form of paper weight is correct since it was sold as a book weight.

It's a wrench but not for valve stems.

Not sure, I'll ask the owner of it.

Yes

He didn't mention any markings on it, but I'll ask about this.

All correct. Yes, a teacher took one of these onto a plane, they grilled, hand-cuffed and put her into a police holding cell at the airport. Also threatened jail and a huge fine for taking a weapon onto an airplane.

Correct

I'm guessing that this is a different name for a flaring tool, if so then it's correct.

See below

Yes

Still not sure about this one

Right

I bought it at the book store, it was sold as a book weight.

All correct but not sure about 228

Correct

If he is a neighbor, maybe the owner can ask the seller of this tool what his father did for a living.

At last I know one!! No. 226 is a gadget that you put on a book to hold it open while you do something else with your hands. Can't remember what it is called. I use mine so I can eat and read at the same time.

226. Book Placeholder (keeps book open hands-free while you read, walk away, etc.)

That's it for me!

Librarian's cosh, for when they won't "Shush!". Soft leather covering so it's pretty quiet when you use it.
