The brass piece acts as a lock keeping the blade in the position you choose. The metal in the knife appears to be stainless steel and brass but there are no markings designating that.
The jigged handles have the appearance of stag antler but when tapped sound more like a plastic, possibly bake lite. The knife seems sturdy and does not have any play in either position. The pins on this knife seem a little high to me, I would possibly file them a little if I were to keep it. The blade does not appear to have been resharpened, it has a nice polished finish, some fine micro-scratches and an area of discoloration near base of blade.
