Default Help ID some trinkets from my last visit to the Surplus store

I recently made another trip to my favorite surplus store and came home with a real mixed bag of items, some of which I can't ID. So I am hoping for some insight from others on the forum.

First two items are the curved type machete and the little adjustable "Indian" wrenches shown in the photo below. The machete has "LSR on the blade, which would indicate it's use was prior to 1949 when the Lake Superior Ragiment added "Scottish" to their name. Does anyone know what period these blades were used in and what their purpose was? What is the correct name for them?

The second items are the little adjustable wrenches. They have the term "Indian" on the handles, and a part number of 1F122868. Are these wrenches part of the EIS of the Indian motorcycles?

Lots more items in the batch, but I'll start with these two.
