What 梎 means
It maps to 梎, whose old dictionary record includes a sickle handle. The Song-dynasty rhyme dictionary Guangyun, completed in 1008, records the compound 梎柌 for a sickle handle.
The 1716 Kangxi Dictionary also gives 梎 a separate reading for a tree name. Unicode retains 梎 for round-trip conversion with Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 standard; its source record is plane-5 code T5-327E.
What changes when you normalize it?
Normalization rewrites it as 梎. Canonical normalization maps 梎 to 梎, so the original code point does not survive that operation.
Unicode also registers 梎 UFE00 (Variation Selector-1) for the documented glyph variant. The selector sequence preserves that visual distinction without assigning another dictionary meaning.

Questions people ask
1Why does 梎 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
