Thank you all for your input. The handle of the small blade looks to be a mixture of Ivory, Bone and Ebony with the brass inlay. I am really interested to find out more about it. Some of the other items I got with this same stuff was from Africa that is why I kind of assumed it may be from there as well, but I also got an Italian 1871 Sabre with this stuff as well.
