I picked up another one too Josh. Little two-blade pen, says its a K85 pattern, made in Germany. Looks like the fraternal twin to your latest one. Snaps so hard it just about jumps out of your hand. Never been sharpened but has some spotting on blades. Haven't figured out yet what the scales are made of - maybe horn? Here he is with his big brother.

The sleeveboard pen does look to be horn.
