130 looks like half of a mold, though a mold of what I don't know.
132 could be a compass tip, a soldering iron tip, or an engraver tip.
133 is a pulley; I'd guess an 'idler' pulley, intended to take up

131 is a razor blade dispenser. I think it was for a Shick razor, but not positive about the brand.
133 looks like some sort of pulley with a brake lever.
135 looks like a standard weight for use with a balance scale.

Yes, it's a mold, you get partial credit for that, it's for something common.
None of these are correct.
It's a pulley but I don't think it's an idler, this one was used on the farm.

Correct, it does say Schick on it.
Yes, though it was used for a particular purpose.
This one isn't a weight.

I imagine it's used with the spike horizontal to lift something less than twenty pounds. It might be to hold a door at a desired height. You drill a horizontal hole in a post and drive the spike in halfway. Then hoist your door to the height you wish and the brake will hold it.
The eye might be to tie the brake open in case you want the door to drop whenever you let go of the rope.
I wonder if the door would be to control the flow of something like grain or water. Could it be a griddle greaser? Clip your lube tube to the fitting and start pumping. The greaser will slide around on the griddle distributing grease for perfect pancakes.

132 looks like a lathe centre.

I'm sure that it could be used as you suggest, but that wasn't its intended purpose.
This one is a little different than most that I post here, it isn't a tool but something entirely different.

A conjuring prop, perhaps

It isn't from a perpetual motion machine and doesn't have a battery or wires.
Some would say that this object is to be used for fun and entertainment, but others wouldn't find it to be so.
