U+9417 "鐗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鐗

U+9417 "鐗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character traditionally associated with the meaning of a metal tool or a type of blade, often interpreted as a variant or cognate of "鐧" (jiǎn), which refers to a long, blunt weapon used in martial arts. Its structure combines the semantic radical for metal "钅" (or its traditional form "金") with a phonetic component, and it appears primarily in classical texts or ancient dictionaries rather than modern Chinese writing. The character holds particular significance in historical weapon terminology and calligraphy, where it may denote a specific kind of iron rod or club used in warfare, though its usage today is largely limited to academic study of older Chinese scripts.
