U+943E "鐾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+943E "鐾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or historical Chinese character composed of a metal or gold radical (金) combined with other elements, traditionally meaning a tool for scraping or smoothing, such as a file or a type of knife used in leatherworking or metalworking. It appears in classical texts and specialized vocabulary rather than modern standard Chinese, and its usage is largely confined to historical or technical contexts. As a CJC (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) ideograph, it shares structural and phonetic parallels with related characters but is not commonly encountered in contemporary writing.
