Need these id'd

First one i know is a knife blade... but is it silver? dont see any marks where plating would of rubbed off... and is tarnished almost totally black... the 2nd item, my guess is a gun barrel... but the bullets would be a little small, and were they copper/brass? the thing that throws it off for being a pipe for me is its to thick and the grid like design on the top section of it...

Any info would be nice.

barrel looks a lil bigger than a foot long.

just looked at the crack in the knife, it aint plated if its silver.

Don't think it's a gun barrel. Looks more like a handle from some type of tool. What you call "grid pattern" is called knurling, and is used so you can grip it. Not sure what it's off of.

The knurled item looks like a rivet tool or something similar.

Knife blade looks like an old carbon steel one to me... probably still has a decent edge (relative to its overall condition) it if that's correct.

When I was younger I had a free weight bar that had knurling like that, maybe it was a dumbbell bar, although mine was solid.I have seen breaker bars that have knurling like that, it is just for giving a gripping area on a tool.

It's the handle from a broken pickle fork

Kinda doubt it. I've owned many through the years and they were all solid. I've never seen the handle broken off the fork either.....even on the cheap made in China junk.

Funny you say that because here is one I broke, that's why I recognized it.
