    Hi,
    I just bought 2 tools that I could user some help with identifying them.

    I think this might be dovetail plane:

    And forum ate second part once again…

    Here is the second tool, seems to be done kind of scraper. Very thick blade maybe over 10mm. Blade looks home made though.

    The second is probably a veneer hammer. ( a bit of a misnomer)

    The first could be a dovetail or snipe plane, depending on how the blade is profiled

    Thanks Larry,

    If I understood correctly, snipe plane has a kind of convex blade? This has straight blade profile, so I think it is a dovetail plane.

    And now that I googled veneer hammer, I believe you are right. It sure looks like home made veneer hammer.
