What Are These Small Metal Pieces?

I've seen them before but I'm not sure what they're called or used for. Anyone have a clue? Cleaning up the garage and need to find a home for them.

Ok, maybe glazing push points? Used to hold glass when refinishing window frames?

Glazers Points, Primarily used to hold glass in place when replacing the putty on window glass. They are customarily pushed in with a Putty Knife.

I often use them when putting glass in picture frames.

I could have used them yesterday when putting a print in a frame instead of the junk they sent with the frame.

Did someone recently change the glass on your blast cabinet?

Nope, but I can be a bit of a packrat, so no telling when/where/how they ended up in my garage.
