Is there a generally accepted "scale" between the katana and wakizashi as far as tsuba and fittings go (not blade size)? I ask, because some places/companies sell their tsubas, fuchi, and kashira as "katana AND wakizashi size" and others specifically label things as katana OR wakizashi sized. Are wakizashi fittings supposed to be smaller?

Katana fittings will be larger than wakizashi or tanto fittings. The blades are of varying thickness, as well as the tsuka and saya. I don't think that there is a universal scale that they are held to, though.
