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.

The tang of the sword goes into the tsuka through the opening in the fuchi.The kashira is the end cap (pommel) on the tsuka. Menuki: The menuki are ornaments on the tsuka (generally under the tsuka-ito); to fit into the palm for grip.
