150: Dremel drill bit, possibly for cleaning drill holes in metal?

151: Hook used to open crates or barrels?

152: This device is used to pull the thingummy off the watchamacallit, or is it used with springs?

153: This clamp clamps two slippery things together.

154: Methinks this could be a hammer to break glass etc., possibly in emergencies, although it looks like tent peg.

I think it's probably for wood, but you have the right idea, I posted a side view of it here:

This one isn't really used as a hook, nor is it for crates or barrels. I thought it was an odd shaped screwdriver when I bought it, but I've since found out that it's used for something entirely different.

Your first guess here is closer than your second.

Looks like a clamp, but that's not what it's used for. It has a specific purpose other than just holding something.

The last part of your answer is correct, according to the guy who sold it to me it's a Civil War hammer/tent peg. He also mentioned that to spread out the weight of carrying these around each soldier's horse would carry just one peg.

If battens are nailed down, a sailor needs a tool to pry them loose.

The anchor icon is not related to the use of this tool, it's not used on ships, the symbol is probably related to the foundry or manufacturer.

Is it used for dragging large fish around the tables at a fish market?

It's not used on fish, but it is used on a large animal.

Ah! Of course! The hint gives it away.

Obviously it's the hook used to wedge between the plates of giant sandworms on Arakis when riding same, in order to prevent them from diving under the sand.

It's a pick used to clean horse's hooves.
