The Tsuba is usually a round or occasionally squarish guard at the end of the grip of bladed Japanese weapons. They contribute to the balance of the weapon and to the protection of the hand. The Tsuba was mostly meant to be used to prevent the hand from sliding onto the blade during thrusts as opposed to protecting from an opponent's blade. You can use it on katana or wakizashi.
