The Easy No. 2 was for adjusting or repairing a set of bolt cutters.

No. 1 has the shape of the wrenches used on high pressure gas bottles like Propane or Acetylene, there are a huge number of these, all slightly different.

Wrench 4- maybe William Meyer & Sons- made for air handler or? Looks older than 1946 or later when the company was started.
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

#3 could be a wrench for a Pullmax machine, some are marked pullmax some are not. They would be metric as they were made in Sweden. They made many different sized machine so there are more than one size tool. Hook spanner is for the collets, open end is for a couple adjustment and locking bolts. Sorry no pic, never owned a wrench from one but have 3 machines now.
