錐鋸（上音隹左傳云錐刀之未也故史記云錐不處囊其未立見說文云銳物也從金隹聲下居御反賈逵注國語云鋸斷謂大辟宮刑也蒼頡篇云即截物鋸也說文從金居聲）。

Awl and saw (錐鋸: the upper character has the sound zhuī; Zuo zhuan says: "The point of an awl or knife." Thus Shiji says: "An awl is not placed in a pouch; its tip would instantly show." Shuowen says: "A sharp object; derived from 金 [metal] with 隹 as phonetic." The lower is jū + yù [jù]; Jia Kui's commentary on Guoyu says: "鋸斷 refers to the capital punishment of castration." Cang Jie pian says: "That is, a saw that cuts objects." Shuowen: "Derived from 金 [metal] with 居 as phonetic.").
