# Does anyone know the use (if any) of the following items:

# Fishing Hook

Someone already said "fishing".  It saved my live once ... was out of food 
and ran accross a stream and got a bunch of trout.  It's pretty light.

#  Jewelry

Maybe it gives a positive mod on some social skills?

#  Cutlery
#  Tableware

A merchant once recommended using silverware and cups when eating.
Perhaps they increase the food value of the rations you eat?  They're
lighter than a single ration but I don't know if it's worth it.

#  net

There's at least one specific use in the game that people mentioned.
Don't know if it's usable in general.

#  Copper cauldron

Possibly a similar affect as cutlery and tableware?

Heh.  We're just talking about this just a little while ago...  Anyways, to
rehash what was said quickly: You can find on in the Dwarven Pit in 
Finksterkoppen (or however it's spelled).  You can find one in the Blood Peaks
orc caves.  You should be able to buy one from a merchant.  I've seen them
for sale before but never needed to buy one (no recipes) until recently and
didn't "plan ahead".  

: Does anyone know the use (if any) of the following items:

Nope.  Maybe look fancy.

:   Charcoal

This is used in some alchemist potions.  Or maybe you can use it for a 
BBQ.  :-) 

:   Fishing Hook

Go fishing of course!  :-)  On occasion you'll pass a stream where they ask 
you if you want to fill your water skins or go fishing or both.  

:   Licorice
:   Bonbons

Alchemist potions again.  Unfortunately, the amount of alchemist recipies seem
to be very low.  Must be a rare profession...

:   Jewelry
:   Cutlery

NO idea.  Maybe if you have some very important house guests...

:   net

You'll probably find out later in the game.

:   Copper cauldron

Same as charcoal, licorice and bonbons.

:   Brass Mirror

We went over this already, didn't we?  :-)

:   Book

Well, when used with writing utensiles, you can copy single recipies into the
book so you don't have half a dozen scrolls floating around in your backpack.
Saves space and you can get a few silvers from the scrolls.  Since you can't
expand your backpack, this is useful to anyone with alchemist skills and 
writing skills.

:   Tableware
:   beer

Beer is useful if you want to get drunk (just like in real life!).  You can 
use it to reduce some of the negative attributes for a while.  Like if you 
find a piece of dental floss in which you have use to cross a mile deep 
canyon, beer will reduce their acrophobia a little.  (Temporarily.)
