Stuff I can't identify

Here are some pictures of stuff I found that I can't identify. All were found in or very near to a CW camp.

First one looks like a cutter/crimper that the handles have rusted away.

Second pic is a buckle for a head stall (bridle).

What size is the item in pic #1? Small enough to be part of an adjustable gun sight?

Just guessing...

For some reason...I'm thinking picture one is what is left of an ICE PICKER UPPER (whatever you call those things LOL)

Pic #1 is a weird item. It is some sort of metal piece in an old leather piece. The leather is black, dried out , and fragile as well. I have no clue what it is. I found it at a CW fort site in my home town on the TX coastline.

I shouldn't have posted the picture of the small buckle piece...I know what that is. Sorry...don't know how that picture got in there.

I agree with NHbenz regarding the 4th object. It's a 'lyre' within a wreath; similar to the logo shown here:

The first one looks like a tool used for cleaning up home made lead bullets. You would use it to nip off the extra lead. A tool like it was used in the movie The Patriot with Mel Gibson.
