Without looking at the answers so far...
321 - An optical illusion. The dovetails run at 45 degrees to the sides, not perpendicular
322 - A cobblers tool of some sort?
323 - Grease or compressed air nipple
On the rest, I'm drawing a blank...

Cutting torch tip for acetylene. The outer holes have the heater flame (mixed gas) and the inner jet is the separately controlled cutting oxygen.
Heater jets are wrong for oxy-propane. Oxy-propane nozzles have more and smaller holes, are generally dismantlable for cleaning and their outer sleeve is often brass.

Correct, though I've heard it's for paring hooves, not sure if it's for removing horseshoes. It's also called a butteris.

Farrier's tool. For trimming hooves.
No country boys here?

I've watched a lot of farriers trim a lot of horse hooves, and I've never seen one use a tool like that. Could someone who knows something about it explain how it is used?

This one is an antique, I'm sure they have different tools now that serve the same purpose.
