I'm pretty new to collecting artifacts and have no idea what things are called. Here are 4 pics of some items I could use help on. I looked them up in books but got even more confused than I already was. All 4 are from Calif.

Item #1 - Is this a hematite crayon?
Item # 2 - This is almost a triangle. What is it called? It's 1 3/4" across.
Item # 3 - Not sure what these are called.
Item # 4 - Could this be a knife blade? One book had pics of "women's knife blades" that looked like this one. It's 1 1/2" long.

Item #1 looks like a natural rock to me.

Item #2 looks like a Crescent with both ends broken off.

Item #3 looks like a Scraper of some kind.

Item #4 looks like a Knife form or a Preform for a Blade.
 

Womans knife blade?
