Unusual V8 gear shift knob

[deuce lover]

Can anyone pinpoint the application for this gear shift knob ? It is black and has the V8 engraved.In last 20 yrs seen less than a handful.
Most common to my knowledge are the brown with the embossed V8 37-38 pass cars then the black with the embossed V8 for 37-38 commercial.
Pete,Please enlarge.Thanks Just edited them so might be larger.

I have a horn button with the same v8 symbol.
Are these uncommon also?
Would this be late 1936 also?

It is just the normal horn button which has the Embossed ( Raised) V8.Very common.

Are these knobs a 3/8"- 24 thread or something else?

Also weren't the originals molded opposite of this? The V-8 was proud of the knobs surface. Here this one appears like it's carved out/molded out of the negative space - meaning like an engraving below the surface of the knob. I have no idea about them just trying to learn about them.
