I have no idea who is that character. If you mean his haircut then I have to say that similar style was popular among Poles too, pic related is one of our hetmans (minister of war)

In general they avoid them.
Khmelnitsky had no choice. And later sultan betrays hetmanate
>>73096142
yes he even uses a saber

OK, I should write that they often fought against Tatars, but there were instances when they sided with them.

Sabres were like a default type of weapon in this part of Europe, staring from Hungary. Still this guy doesn't wear trousers similar to typical Cossack "sharavary" or at least they aren't visible on that picture. Also - more to the East Cossacks used different type of sabre called "shashka".

Actually those guys you posted have different haircut, they wear typical Cossack "chupryna" aka "osedelets" aka "chub".
