Are(not) these knitting needles?

IMG_6070
A continuing quest to identify these as knitting needles.  Why do I think so?  Well, I got them in the box with other knitting needles at a thrift store and they must have been put there with some indication that they were for that purpose.
They were not in with the cutlery so they are not two sets of chopsticks and one koan chopstick of the "what is the use of one chopstick hovering…" sort.  They were not in with the tools or camp equipment. 

Most of all – they knit wonderfully!  On two needles or four.  The larger end is the working end.  And they are relaxing to knit with so they may well be ergonomic in design.  Has anyone seen anything like these?
