U+5262 "剢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5262 "剢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) used in East Asian writing systems, specifically within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) block. This character is primarily a variant form of the more common character "剝" (bo1 in Mandarin), which means to peel, strip, or flay. While "剢" is historically recognized and appears in some classical texts and dictionaries, it is rarely used in modern Chinese and Japanese, often appearing only in specialized or archaic contexts. Its structure combines the knife radical 刂 on the right with a phonetic component, reflecting its original meaning related to cutting or separating surfaces.
