Hi again Blue Lander,
I don't quite know what to suggest to stabilise the hilt, and can't help with what it is made of. Perhaps if you can get the hilt straight, and the silver covering correctly placed, a careful injection of some sort of resin might just do the trick. Once the hilt is stable, the silver joints could be carefully soldered where they have come apart. Best I can suggest, but if left as is, it will easily suffer further damage I think.
