Unknown fossil from Green Mill Run (Greenville, NC)

Hi! I'm looking for some help IDing these fossils from Green Mill Run (Greenville, NC). The two fossils were found on different trips, but seem to have similar structures. I have only found these two across many trips so they don't seem to be common. Someone mentioned that they could be lobster/crab claws so if anyone has anymore information on that, or alternate IDs, I would really appreciate the help! Thanks!

these are crab claw fragments. the flat looking areas are the crushing surfaces of the claws. I see where you're going though Rockwood. The broken sections almost look like the villiform teeth of ratfish.

Should point out I've been wrong before...
