The Chinese characters 刀 meaning is knife, sword.
This radical is a pictograph of a knife or sword. Wielded in the cause of justice, the sword protects the innocent; but brandished irresponsibly, it is double-edged. A sharp blade is likened to a person vested with too much power, and a proverb warns: “A knife that’s too sharp easily cuts the fingers.”
