Gunsmithing tools

These gunsmithing tools were part of a set given by Cameron of Lochiel to Donald MacNab of Innishoan. Both men were officers in Prince Charles Edward's Jacobite army. The tool set was later presented to General Duncan MacNab in 1814.

The tools pictured here are a chisel, a blade, a spindle and a hammer shaft. All four items are made of steel.
