Inherited these. Have no idea what they do. I think the are automotive. Anyone know? The grey one has a carbide grit wheel that spins with the handle and two screws on the back. The black one is some sort of clamp?

I have seen old valve lapping tools that look like the second one. If that is what it is you are missing part of it.

The top one is a bearing splitter also known as a guilotine, it is for pulling off bearings, the lower one is for grinding the end gaps on piston rings. BTW the ring gap grinder is upside down in the picture.

The bearing splitter can be a life saver, but ive always used them with a pulling tool
