What are katanas with no tsuba called?
Could you please clarify for me, what is the term used to describe katanas, the traditional Japanese swords, that do not possess a tsuba? I'm particularly interested in understanding the terminology and whether there's a specific name for these swords that lack the handguard, often referred to as the tsuba. I'm curious about the cultural significance or practical implications of this design choice, if any.
