U+525A "剚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of a knife or sword radical on the right and a phonetic component on the left, historically meaning to stab, thrust, or insert a blade into something, often used in ancient texts to describe the act of piercing or killing with a dagger. It is a rare character in modern Chinese, appearing primarily in classical literature and historical documents rather than contemporary usage, and it belongs to the wider set of Han characters encoded in the Unicode standard to support traditional and simplified Chinese writing systems.
