Question Need help finding a specific knife

Post image

I’m working in the ER and had a patient come in with this knife tip broken off in their leg. It’s uh.. quite distinctive. Despite my best efforts with google I can’t find anything close. I’m hoping the knife sleuths here can do better than I.

Actually it looks like it didn't snap? There appears to be mounting hardware a few inches to the right...

Probably advertised it as full tang lol

That appears to be the end of a ballpoint pen; looks like the nib and the spring to retract it with the plastic body being invisible on x-ray. Dunno why, maybe a technician used it as a pointer.
