I think some of these are archaic.

  • 卍
  • 乂
  • 〆
  • 々
  • 凹・凸
  • 卜
  • 兀
  • 厶
  • 匕
  • 丶
  • ゝ

々 is a iteration mark

I’ve seen #1 on Japanese maps. It indicates the location of a Buddhist temple.
#4 looks like the iteration mark (or “repeater” kanji in WK, Lesson 2).
#6, #8 and #9 look like the katakana for と、む and ひ.
#9 looks like the “drop” radical in WK, Lesson 1. As for which ones might be kanji, I don’t have a clue, although #5 looks familiar.
