Koohii stories:

1) [synewave] 28-9-2006(302): Beforehand, this was a halberd but I cut it short so it could be for hand to hand combat.

2) [mspertus] 12-9-2006(126): Your halberd doesn't have a handguard? You should have thought of that beforehand (i.e., before you were missing your hand).

3) [zwarte_kat] 15-2-2009(25): This is the halberd beforehand, i mean: before you draw the hand (the last stroke of halberd).

4) [nesert] 3-7-2010(9): Be sure to check your halberd beforehand to make sure it's not missing its final stroke.

5) [Nukemarine] 10-12-2007(6): As others see it, think of BEFOREHAND with Forehand, which easily reminds you of a tennis racket for use as a primitive in later kanji. It even looks like a tennis racket, so all the better.
