Interesting project, hope you can share some pics of the finished work when you have it together.

You may want a shield (plate 1 bottom right) to go with your Kalinga Axe. Krieger on page 96 describes how the shield was used to sweep an opponents legs with the top prongs and then pin the fallen's neck with the bottom two prongs in order to facilitate the taking of the head.

good luck with the project!
