You are in the 30% bracket on these. They make a profit at the 0% HQ bracket even if you buy everything, but farm the Manticore Hair anyway. NPC the fangs and AH the hides.
Otherwise mine and make ingots as stated above.
If the mule has not been leveled and therefore can't get into Gusgen Mines and live, the Kaginawa is a good option.
