>I'm guessing at both here.

The scraper looks like ... a scraper. I *think* the user has substituted in the leather blade, possible for some kind kind of polishing.

The other tool may be a wallpaper trimmer. Wallpaper used to sold with the pattern NOT going all the way to the edge (printing to the edge is hard).

>I agree with the wall paper trimer , the other item , which looks like a modified paint scraper with a leather blade,if it was found with it could have been used to press the paper down in the corners and edges.....Todd
