Tang not Included

A fuchi (縁) is a hilt collar located between the tsuka and the tsuba. It serves as a reinforcment for the Tsuka or "handle". The tang of the sword goes into the tsuka through the opening in the fuchi.
The Kashira (頭) is a pommel on the end of the tsuka, which serves as a reinforcement for the Tsuka or "handle". It usually features a hole or opening that is used to secure the tsukaito or wrapping.
