First one is the standard late or post-war US M18 wrench. Used for all artillery 75mm and up.

Last one looks like a primer wrench for screw in primers, so British rather than US but presumably post war.

Second one has a Nato Stock Number on it (5120-21-102-3503). I am assuming the 21 is correct, both by the early time period of the NSN and the other lettering of Wrench, Ammo, C-4. The NSN dates back to the adoption of the NSNs in Cdn service.

The other end is the screwdriver blade to set the delay or super quick setting on PD type fuzes.
