鐵鉆（奇廉反說文鐵鋷也謂銸取物也蒼頡篇鉗持也通俗文鍛具曰鉆經文作鉗謂以鐵束人者也鉗非此用銸音奴懾反）。

Iron tongs (鐵鉆: qí + lián fanqie; the Shuowen jiezi states: "An iron pincers (鋷)"; it means tweezers used to pick up things; the Cang Jie pian states: "To grip and hold"; the Tongsu wen states: "A blacksmith's tool is called zhān (鉆)"; the scripture text writes it as 鉗, which means using iron to bind a person; 鉗 is not used for this; 鋷 is pronounced nú + shè fanqie).
