What does this mean?

Japanese hilts from a Tanto ( Japanese knife ) made for export purposes. Date wise around 1900 ( Meiji period ) They are indeed made of bone and well carved. Japanese swords and knifes and the objects concerning them are quite collectable. Carvings are above average. My estimation is for the three.
