Thanks Tim for the information.

Yes, the seller gave information that the previous owner destroyed the hair because he was afraid of witchcraft . Apparently, he also made a leather braid. The fang was on the axe initially.

I did not quite understand what cap you are talking about.

You did not give information, is it Sema dao?

Best regards,
Yuri
