Double Flee A

devil's in the detail

From this auction: eBay: Vintage Watchmaker's Tool:
"From the estate of a local watchmaker, this item came from his workbench. I showed this to a local horologist and he was unfamiliar with its' function."

The old watchmaker had to make things. The new horologist obviously doesn't, and that's pretty weak. This is all basic graver stock and a slot cutter. I don't know about the round one, but it could be for working pivots.
