Not really sure what these items are other than the copper pipe which I don't need identified, it is just in this picture group. They were found in the same area, but not related.

could that be a toy cordless phone?
I hope your not asking me, if I knew I wouldn't have posted it! LOL Just kidding, it could be, but I really have no clue. Thanks for looking and replying!

#2 looks like a piece of copper pipe. The end of a roll of copper(crimped at the end)was cut off with a pipe cutter and discarded. I have done it many times.

No. 1- My guess is it is a broken piece of a pipe reamer or just a reamer. No. 5 - soap stone for marking metal? No. 4 - old cabinet knob?

#1 more likely an old carbon battery rod or a carbon rod from an arc lamp IDed by taz like this
The carbon rod is from a battery - Friendly Metal Detecting Forums

Thank you for the link, taz may have gotten the solve, but you put it in perspective, I had no idea what a carbon battery rod was for! I have found 3 others last year, but never got around to posting them. If others are like me, they don't just want to know what something is called, they want to know what it is! So again, thank you.
