fesin-i toldohon
Fesin-i toldohon is the Manchu word for the ferrule on a sword grip, as it turns up in a 1766 dictionary.1 The ferrule prevents the hilt from splitting and provides a tight fit against the guard.
Fesin literally means: handle, stock, grip, or pole for a flag or banner.2
Toldohon literally means: an engraved band or ring on the hilt of a sword or dagger.3
