Item ID help.

[Locke]

Hello brains of TreasureNet, found a few items I’m having a hard time identifying. Any help would be appreciated. I’ve found Civil War items in the area up to the 1940s.

Not sure if this is “shoe related” but couldn’t find anything similar.



Second item I’m totally clueless about.



And lastly these lead guys. Seals of some sort?



Thank you for the help!

It's kinda hard to gauge the size without some standard (a coin) or measuring tape.
My uneducated guess on the first 2 are taps rivited to the soul of a shoe. Probably not old as they would have been nailed.

I believe the last objects could be rugby studs. Although i've never heard them to be made out of lead. Maybe their just older.

As Fivey already mentioned, without knowing the size or composition of the first two items, it's just a shot in the dark for us?

Your first piece does resemble the shape of the inside of a shoe, but I think it would be awfully uncomfortable with those rivets and brass plate.
It may have originally been part of a horse harness/hame or even a saddle.

I second that on the bottom pic, they do look like some sort of cleats to me... how long is the item in the top pic?

First pic reminded me of a pocket knife. Completely guessing.

Here is additional photo as requested. To be precise the item is 4.2 inches long.


As for the lead pieces, they do look a little like cleats, but are made of lead (which I’ve never seen before) plus the patina on the lead itself seems old (that whiteish color that you see on CW lead).

Thanks again!
