I AM NOT SURE BUT THESE ITEMS MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH OPIUM USE, BUT THOUGHT THEY MAY BE USEFUL FOR PURPOSES OF IDENTIFING THESE VARIOUS TOOL/ KNIVES.
1. SMALL TOOL KIT
2. TWO DIFFERENT EXAMPLES OF WHAT I REFER TO AS A EGGBEATER KNIFE.
3. CHINESE HERB CUTTER KNIFE
4. SMALL BRONZE BLADED KNIFE
5. & 6 SMALL CHOPPERS
7. SMALL TOOL FOR SHOVELING (PIPE OR LAMP CLEANING)

So those last ones are from a monk's spade for really small children?

Neat stuff, though. I was admiring that Chinese version of a Swiss Army knife at the top, myself. All it's missing is the can opener.

Best,
