錛
U+931B "錛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily represents an adze, a woodworking tool similar to an axe but with a blade set at a right angle to the handle, used for shaping or carving wood. This character, composed of the metal radical 釒 (jīn) on the left and the phonetic component 本 (běn) on the right, is used in both traditional Chinese and Japanese (as a kanji) to denote the tool itself or actions related to adzing. It appears in historical and modern contexts related to carpentry, construction, and various East Asian cultures where woodworking has been a traditional craft.
