Amazing things BTW! Very impressive.

Thanks Atlantia, yes I think at one time there was some kind of end cap there. But I'm not sure what it should be.
It is a cast metal cap on the lower one.
Not sure of the metal.
But the other one doesn't have the cast top mount.
So, don't know what was once there.
Maybe someone can post a photo of a similar ax to provide the info.
Here's a photo of the ends where you can see the ferrule.
