Default Old Wooden Tools/What Are They?

Hello everyone. Just joined the forum and really enjoy reading all the threads and posts. I have found an abundance of old tools and implements in my Grandpa's barn which I inherited recently. I have found some neat stuff like flax combs and a variety of wooden handled hand tools. I know what most of them are but these three (picture attached) have me puzzled. Grandpa grew corn and raised sheep, if that helps. Any help would be appreciated...

Welcome to the forum. Hopefully, someone will have some ideas for your tool identification.

They could be some tools used to construct beam and peg frame buildings; barns, sheds, ect. This is just a guess, but it is a possibility. thanks; sonny

The long spike looks like it may have used to splice rope. Fred
