The top brass piece moves up and down while the black metal is very flat almost like a blade to cut something. Thanks for looking.

How 'bout a vintage cigar cutter. WELCOME to the forum! Breezie

I believe it's actually a medical spring lancet. The blade is depth adjustable.

For bloodletting. How far we've come in 175 years. Thank God.
