I found this multitool (first set of pictures) with a spokeshave on one side and a blade on the other about a month ago after a good rain along the side of a gravel bar just below the water line.

A couple of weeks later, my wife and I found two more pieces of a similar size, but I am unsure if they are worked or shaped by creek chatter. This one looks very similar to the first set of pictures, but perhaps not completed, my confidence in this one is not high enough in either direction: nature or man.

This last one I am leaning toward something that was quickly made and discarded after its use. But I will see what anyone here thinks before I go with any identification.

All from a creek in Denton County.
Thanks in advance.

I’d agree on the first, others it’s hard to see in the pictures that 3rd one has kind of a rounded edge that could be a scraper but I don’t know if I see the flaking or not
 

I find things sometimes that were worked on and then discarded because it wasn’t working out for what was needed at the time. If you have to look and try to figure out what the artifact was then chances are it is probably in preform stage. Still a artifact either way
