Trident with a outward curved tine?

[Onomatopoeia]

@Mangetout

Not sure about that. A trident with a splayed tine would be functionally quite similar to some forms of pike.

And this is why I stated that the tine that is curved is not simply splayed.

I know exactly what the OP is asking about, and have wondered about the significance as well.

It is a trident with just one of the tines, either the left or right one, curved outward, while the other two are straight. I thought it may have had some kind of occult significance, but I haven’t yet found an example via Google. Still looking.

YES! You described it perfectly.

To those asking where I have seen it, I’ve seen it as street graffiti, as tattoos, and on clothing or doodled on tables etc.

It does not look like the scorpio symbol, it is clearly a trident not a “M” shape like the scorpio symbol you can see the handle.

OK, but I don’t think that makes a difference to the comparison with a pike. Some pike heads have recurved hooks or blades on them.

This is becoming one of those threads.

Like these tridents Poseidon carries?

Some tridents are odd-shaped. Perhaps with good reason.

Does it not look like the gang symbol I posted before? If not, how is it different?

It doesn’t look like that gang symbol, for one thing the pic you posted it just a symmetrical trident. Like I said this is a trident where one single outer tine is curved outward all the way to where the tip points in the opposite direction of the other two.

You know what I know where I can take a pic of this symbol, and I will do so and post it so people can see. Guess I should have done that to start with.
