Interesting piece wired to the loose jaw face I guess to reduce the teeth penetration - I guess I will leave it. It still has the original dirt, rust, and patina as you can see some fell off on the kitchen table. Ooops, don't tell my wife. It has a really long chain with a cool T shaped end that I forgot to take a picture of.
