harness
韅 centers on a specific leather part of horse tack: a harness, likely a strap or piece of equipment made from leather.
韅 combines 革 (leather) with 㬎, which likely contributes the sound and relates to the idea of a leather harness or strap. The exact historical development is uncertain.
The leather radical 革 on the left suggests something made of leather. The right side 㬎 looks like a complex arrangement of straps and buckles. Picture a leather harness with many straps and fittings.
For ケン, imagine a harness maker named Ken carefully crafting a leather harness: Ken -> ケン, and his hands work the leather.
