Help identifying these 3 items

[SharonP]

Hi everyone! I've been metal detecting for about 2 and a half years now. Usually if I can't figure out what it is I've found I'll try to Google it, but I just recently found this forum so I figured why not just try asking here . I Googled these finds, and I think I might have an idea what they are but I'm not sure and could be completely wrong! Haha! All of these were found near an old barn site in South Carolina outside of the Columbia area.

This is item #1. I am guessing possibly a key hole maybe of some sort? Again not sure. Has a bend in it and isn't flat. Not sure what it could have came off of.

Item #2: Maybe a weight of some sort??? It has quite a bit of weight to it like a fishing weight, but not sure what kind of weight it would be if it is one.

And lastly #3. I Googled and Googled this one and something that came close to it was an ox knob maybe??? It has 3 holes in it. One on each end and a small one on the side. It's also threaded on the inside.

Thanks for any help!

Number 2. I agree is a seine net weight or some type of commercial fisherman net.

First one is what has been called a key shield for a chest or wooden cabinet the wood around the keyhole from becoming damaged overtime inserting a key, second one I agree a weight of some sort, and #3 yep an ox knob. Cool finds. Well done.

That's what I was thinking as well that it was possibly from an old chest or something. Thanks so much!
