Oh, yes indeed! I own and use all of the mentioned tools, except for the french rolling I pin. I still use my 44 year old maple standard pin ( a bridal shower gift!) and my equally old pastry blender. The only thing I would add to the list is the silicone rolling mat, with its graduated circles for pie crusts and measured sides for rectangular doughs. VERY useful. And while I do have the traditional metal and wood bench knife, I have been using the new stiffer plastic one which I just purchased from the catalog. It can be used on the silicone rolling mat without doing damage, and is sturdy enough for all the usual jobs for which you would use a bench knife. A super product!
