Found this little object while magnet fishing off a dock in a small river. Thought it looked like some sort of pellet or small bullet. Maybe those with more experience can tell me. Ive been magnet fishing only about two weeks.8-)

Maybe some type of rivet. Welcome to Treasurenet. Can you put a coin next to the item and take a few more pictures at different angles ?
 

Fou d this today but have no clue what it is. It looks like it has a sharp side like a blade? Please help

Sure looks like some type of Rivet. Maybe a steel boat rivet ?
 

The rivet looking thing does look like a rivet. Could be the little thingy that goes on the end of some control cables to secure it in a slot or recess.Think throttle cable maybe! Scythe blade is a good guess on the blade thingy.
 

Before welding became popular a lot of small boats were put together with pitch or tar as a sealer between metals and they were riveted together
