The spike thingy is a fid used for rope-work, e.g. making splices or working knots. The groove at the butt end is for tying a lanyard that would be tied to your person so you could take it up in the rig and not lose it if you dropped it.
-
Do yourself a favor and order a rear view camera for your bike! I did and it was a game changer! No pesky mirrors to deal with and you'll never be looking over your shoulder

Concretions like the ones with the coin and the thimble are often the result of 2 dissimilar metals in close proximity in an electrolyte such as brackish water or water with tannic acid content. Decaying vegetation such as is found in river bottom mud can produce tannins. Always check the concretion ('crud') for more inclusions. Nice Bike BTW. Happy New Year Si!

Wow, such an intelligent little dog! She knew the piece of wood was too far away, so she brought it closer!
-
Take care of that bike, Simon! Lock it up well when you're out on the foreshore -- it could be mighty tempting for some one to take off with! Happy New Year!!!
-
The spike is called a Marlin Spike, it's used to loosen rope from its moorings and for fancy knot work. The groove is for a line to keep it attached to the belt.

Happy 2024, Simon! Here's to a new year full of amazing and historical finds! Love your channel!
-
Poppy needs her own channel!!! P.S. so glad you're wearing your helmet on the bike. ❤
-
Thank you for taking us on the ride to your digs.
-
The coin stuck in the rock makes it look really old, and adds to it's story. Also, love that new bike. You can travel with ease and in class!!!🥰🥰🥰😎🙏🙏🙏
-
The wooden stake is a vampire stake for killing vampires. 😊
-
Love hearing you and Jules get a chuckle on…..and poppy needs her own show…lol
-
I love your bike.It’s the perfect thing for larking about London 😊. It certainly beats the days I cycled about England on my Raleigh Ladies Touring Bike ,no gears ,facing such challenges as an almighty steep hill alongside ( if memory serves me)Chesil beach. Ah those were the days .I’ve got great legs to this day,which you’ll miss out on with that machine.Oh well, can’t have everything.

Happy New Year’s Simon! I think your new bike is the perfect way to reach the hard to get to locations. Best wishes for Luck in the Muck in 2024!🎉
-
I’m sure Poppy loves it when you show up. I always learn something new from your finds - now I know what a fid is an its use. Happy New Year!
-
The stick is a fid used for rope splicing. I have a metal one with a broad arrow. 😄
-
I think that first item is the frame of a pair of opera glasses. Large hole for the tubes, small one for the focus screw

Happy New Year!
