Very nice haul.
the square block dies come in handy in cases where a thread has to be cut in place, on an existing line, with limited room.
I have never used (or seen) a sqware die ratchet. I have always been forced to use a pipe wrench.
If that Toledo reamer comes apart, it should do so similiar to the die ratchet. Pull the ratchet pin, and set to 90 degrees to remove the head.

I tried that first. It's like the reamer is threaded into the handle with the ratchet head in between. I figured if so, it would be left-handed threads. But the reamer blades are sharp and I didn't have any gloves handy so I didn't twist to hard on things.
