I was given these handles today by a MADS member (Gary Jones) here in Clovis NM,  I recognize the U-Reely and the J Roberts. The third one is aluminum and rubber and has Modelaire molded into the rubber handle. It looks pretty archaic, perhaps the pointed end  was to deter anyone from walking inside the circle.

Yeah, it's a Klingon control handle. If you disagree with your score, you can hack up the judges with it.

I might be able to find one for you, want me to keep my eye out for one? We have three, but need them for carrier contests. Brodak has them, but they took the Roberts name off (same handle though). I saw two or three of them last weekend at a swap meet between $30-50. I can find them from free-$30 usually.
