Buffum Tool Co. Bearing Scrapers w/ Swastika LogoBuffum Tool Co. Bearing Scrapers w/ Swastika Logo  You can read all about the Buffum Tool Co., its history etc with a little internet research.   They were based in Louisiana MO.  These are what they are, bearing scrapers for the final fitting of Babbit bearing in early machinery.  They date from the 20's or a bit earlier and so the logo is either a good luck sign, or an Indian symbol, and they have nothing to do with Germans, Nazis, or the war.   Unless of course you want them to after buying them.

I have seen these offered up as all  sorts of different German / Nazi Tools by "dealers" who know no better.  I have seen them called Tank repair tools to trench weapons and more, and for a lot more.
