SOLVED! Unsure what these are, any clues?
Posted before, but didn't get any conclusive answers, so I am trying again. Any thoughts? Both items are a very heavy metal.

They look like pieces of cast iron that could have come from a wood stove; either one for heating or cooking. Unless you find some type of markings or embossing, I don't know that you'll be able to 100% ID them. Breezie

Again was hoping for some kind of a weapon, both look like they could have been tied to a spear. I guess I better get out of fantasy island and realize that my husband is right... "more junk" LOL
Thanks for always being willing to help, even on things like this! You and bigcypresshunter are the best! Cindy
