horseshoe looking things

I found these things at different places a few years ago.

They look familiar but I can't seem to place them.

any ideas would be appreciated

I found one like your smaller ones. Couldn't figure it as a heel plate, so I am waiting with baited breath to see what your answers are. They do look very much like horseshoes in their construction, except for the cross bar.

That is just so boring, creskol, haven't you got anything more exciting?

Thanks for the info Creskol. I'm with HPD why not leg shackels or something cooler like that. lol

I guess I am going to trash my rusty old pipe hanger. Unless, of course, I take up pipe smoking! I could see a large rack of hanging pipes, just like a rack of hanging wine glasses. Maybe there is some smoke in my future!
