What is it ?

I don't know where to start with this one. Again it was in a box of knives
from last month's ebay purchase. I set it aside because it seemed strange, the blade was all the way in the body the pins (4 each side) appear to be copper and the scales a brick colored composite. I was able to coax the blade out and noticed it had no nail pull. No stamps on tang or elsewear. So I left it alone for a while.
Yesterday I looked into the end where the front bolster seemed loose and noticed that the liner had a hole for some sort of locking device held by the bolster. So upon further exploration I slid the bolster out and It released the side from the rear bolster to expose the blade. So maybe this knife is something now. If anyone has any knowledge please respond. I'm new to this phase of knife collecting and very grateful for any information. Thanks!
