this along with the other things were found at the local park.
the long bolt thing is about 3 inches long, the knife about 2.5 inches long and the other thing looks like a buckle, I also found lots of orange clay broken pottery pieces and some white sheen ceramic pieces. thank you ahead of time you guys and gals rock!!!
Your bolt looking item is, I believe, an air value stem for a tractor. Your buckle looking item is from a suspender buckle. No idea about your blade looking object. Regards
My guess on these items is an old valve stem (long bolt looking thing), a garter/girdle buckle, and the blade looking thing is a metal arrowhead. Yes, they made points from metal, especially barrel straps.
just looks like a broken drain cover to me (like a manhole cover)

How do you find Gold coins? Reply: 'By finding lots of Silver ones..'
A real man thinks about detecting every 6 seconds

Could be an iron point. I mean it does look too thick to be an original point. But, like Havilah Springs said, they have made arrowheads from barrel straps. I guess it depends on the history of the site.

Oldest coins: KG II Halfpence (1727-1760), Liberty Cap 1/2 cent (1795-1797), 1808 1/2 Real.
The reason I don't like the idea of it being a point is because if you look at the back of it, where there appears to be a hole, the bottom is bending down while the top part is either straight or slightly bending down. If it were a point it would not be straight. I think it is broke off farm marchinery. And I agree your buckle is more likely from a garter than a suspender.
