Back to your opening posting...a couple of items to mention :

1. The TD tool may be a WWII tool with the E/63 proof.

2. The large loop cleaning rod, if I recall correctly, is usually attributed to the Weimar (1920's to early 1930's) period, usually police-issued.
I am not at all surprised by this.
As I had initially posted, the box did not look old enough to be contemporary to the gun.
The set of tools was most likely added later.
Overall, this gun sure has inspired some lively and interesting discussion, and I thank everyone for their opinions and posts.
