I bought this little pen knife years ago at an antique store and I can't find anything about it at all. The knife was manufactured by J.Y. Moore & Co. It has a pearloid? handle, and the metal almost looks like aluminum. There are two small blades, and the length with the blades open is about 4-5". The thing that really caught my eye when I found it was the fact that it was made to look like a rattlesnake's rattle. Really unique. Any info is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!

Imported from Germany, not made in N.Y.
The handles are genuine Pearl, the carved bolsters are nickle silver.
Lots of these knives came into this country from 1900-1930`s
