No, they are factory. There is a picture of that pattern in a book titled Antique Knives by Bruce Voyles printed in 1995. If you have the book, you can see it on page 364.

They are factory scales from a time when aluminum was considered a premium handle material.

I did a little research on this site https://robesonsrme.com/history.php
And based on its tang stamp listings this knife was manufactured between 1917 and 1939.
