I have a cast iron skillet and a dutch oven that belonged to my maternal grandmother, so have to be pre-WWII at least.
I have a Pelican Ice wood handled ice pick with the phone number RA 4193 visible on it. Still use it all the time.

I've got 2 skillets from the early 1900's and a steel that's about 60 years old.

My wife has an old dough board that has been in her family since the late 1800’s. Rolled out biscuit dough on it last weekend.

I've got a dutch oven from my great grandmother, probably dates back to the 1800's.
Also purchased a 1920's Griswold dutch oven from eBay

I don’t use any of it but I have my Grandmas cast iron
I have a set of Guardian Service pots with glass lids
I have a set of sheets made from flour sacks by my Great Grandmother
My Grandpa (he’s 94) told me this is what they used to salt pork after they butchered a hog
My Grandma also used it to make pickles
ETA
Also have some of the Ball jars with blue tint
There’s all kinds of things here, I should start trying to date some of it

I have a metal slotted scoop that came with a Fry Daddy circa 1985. The Fry Daddy was passed on, but thank goodness I kept the antique scoop. I use it all the time.
Bought a new Fry Daddy recently. It comes with a plastic scoop that isn't worth a shite. It took 10 scoops to get two servings of fries out of the pot. Might as well use a roux stick.
Good scoop
Not worth a shite

Grams cast iron dutch oven and her two sided half moon looking thing you can cook cornbread on the stove top with.

I've got a big Magnelite roaster that was my grandmother's...not sure how old it is but was probably bought in the '40s-'60s.
Also got a mixing bowl that is probably from the 30's.
