Identifying some finds. These were found together with some cane blades (farm inplements) on a historic property in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

The oddball one is a puzzle, it was found with 3 others just like it. Wagon struts or something?

The other long weight thing, maybe a window weight?

The last appears like a small axe or adze head of some kind.

Thoughts appreciated!

Just first thoughts is the small pointed looking item was for leather work. Similar to an awl.
The large item I'm thinking it could be a hanger in a fireplace. Mounted in the upper brick/stone of the hearth.
A Trammel hung from it, or a part of one.
Then the pots hung off it for cooking.
 

The pointed thing looks like it had a handle at one time. Looks like a weld chipper.
I see that now that you mentioned it.
Good ID
 

I agree with the welding chipping hammer as well.
