Have to agree. The components are too "lightweight" for anything cruder. NDD - If we're wrong I'll share the discomfiture, otherwise I'm petitioning for a share of the "Strider snickersnackers" (whatever they are). Everything else he produces is at least memorable so I want a share too. Peregrino

But what weapon?

Since this is under the 18B section it must be "gun" related. The piece on the right looks to "drift" fixed sights. The one on the left? A "push piece" or punch for pins or a sight post?
Most military weapons will have a manufactured sight adjustment kit. Some are rather hard to find. Enfields, Mausers, SkS and AK sight tools can be all dug up with a little searching.
So which weapon?

If I depart from guns and sights and go to blades and things the one on the right would look like a crude tooth set for a hand saw. I have an old hand set tool but they are hard to find in a modern store.
Hand setting a saw's teeth and filing them. Good job for a cold winter afternoon.

It looks like that brass hammer looking bit slides and locks into the other bit.

AK Sight Adjustment Tool !!
Compliments of Air.177.
If not Weapons related, a Strider Folder Disassembly Tool.

my real guess...
A slide tightener for the 1911 .45?
The acme threads I think I see are for max pressure on the screw.
edited to add, for really small .45's

I've been looking at this thing for an hour. Without knowing how big it is, I couldn't even guess. It has a lot in common with sight adjustment kits for dovetail type rear mounts, but those are usually "U" shaped. It's a button press of some kind, but for what I have no idea.
Either that or it's a BFA for a Flashbang

Don't do a lot of metal work do ya.... that would be a "Brass" hammer. Now you can wonder why its brass.

After closer inspection, the thing that appears to be a Hammer isn't. It fits through the 2 holes in the Rectangle Box Piece and the Nipple Protrusion on the Screw fits into the Hole On the "Hammer Handle" !! Now this tends to lead me to think that the Brass end is in fact a Handle and now what does it do ?!?!?!

Divot press, tubing is slide over the T handle then inserted through the 2 holes on the rectangle box, then you crank down on the press to create a divot.
