82.211

各袖利刃（囚祐反俗字也正體古文從衣從釆作褒部經方言云襦有袖即臂衣也毛詩傳曰袖袪也袪袂也今言袖刃者匕手劍伏突也縛鞘於臂下密抽而㓨之故謂之袖刃抽音丑留反）。

各袖利刃 ('each concealed a sharp blade in his sleeve'; the second character has the fanqie qiu + you [xiù], which is a vulgar character; the standard ancient form takes 衣 and 釆 as radicals, listed under the 褒 section. The Fangyan says: 'A short coat has sleeves [xiu], which are garments for the arms.' The commentary to the Mao Shi says: 'Xiu means sleeve cuff [qu]; qu means sleeve [mei].' Here, saying 'concealed a blade in the sleeve' refers to a dagger, a hidden sword; tying the sheath under the arm, one secretly draws it out to stab, hence it is called 'concealing a blade in the sleeve.' 抽 has the fanqie chou + liu [chōu]).
