A2:  شَطَبَ also signifies It inclined, or declined, turned aside or away, deflected, or deviated, and became distant, or remote; (As, O, K;) and so شَطَفَ; and both signify it went away. (As, TA.) One says, شَطَبَ عَنْهُ It turned aside or away, and became distant, or remote, from him, or it. (K.) Thus, in a trad., شَطَبَ الرُّمْحُ عَنْ مَقْتَلِهِ The spear deflected from, and failed to reach, his vital part.

(K.) كَمَسَلِّ↓ شَطْبَةٍ, in a trad. of Umm-Zara, [as expl. in art. سل, q. v.,] means Like a green palm-stick drawn  forth from its skin: or like a sword drawn forth [from its scabbard]: (TA in art. سل:) [for] b2: ↓ شَطْبَةٌ signifies also A sword.

And, applied to a boy, or young man, (tropical:)  Plump; or fat, soft, thin-skinned, and plump: and so ↓ شَطْبَةٌ applied to a girl, or young woman: (A:) or the former, applied to a boy, or young man, well made, and neither tall nor short: (TA:) or, so applied, light, or active, in body, and sharpheaded: (IAar, TA in art. عضب, voce عَضْبٌ:) or it means, so applied, long and even (سَبِطٌ) in the bones, light of flesh; likened to the palm-stick  that is split: but this epithet is mostly used with ة, i. e. ↓ شَطْبَةٌ, which is applied to a mare: (Ham p. 298:) or this epithet, شَطْبَةٌ, applied to a mare, means lank (سَبِطَةٌ) in flesh; (K, TA;) or tall; (TA;) as also ↓ شِطْبَةٌ in the former sense, (K, TA,) or in the latter; and the masc. is not thus used, applied to a horse: (TA:) and ↓ شَطْبَةٌ, (S,) or ↓ شِطْبَةٌ, (K,) or both, but the former is the more approved, (TA,) beautiful; plump; or fat, soft, thin-skinned, and plump; (K, TA;) and tall: (K:) or simply tall; (S, TA;) as also ↓ مَشْطُوبٌ and ↓ مُشَطَّبٌ applied to a man. (TA.) شَطْبَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in seven places: b2:  and see what next follows.شُطْبَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ شِطْبَةٌ (K) and ↓ شَطْبَةٌ (TA) and ↓ شُطَبَةٌ, (K,) which last is said by some to be a n. un. of شُطَبٌ [mentioned in what follows as a pl.], (MF,) A [raised] line (طَرِيقَة, S, O, or طَرِيق, K, [meaning a ridge, and sometimes also a depressed line, as shown voce مُشَطَّبٌ, i. e. a channel,]) in the مَتْن [i. e. broad side, or middle of the broad side, of the blade] (S, O) of a sword: (S, O, K:) pl. شُطَبٌ and شُطُبٌ, (S, O,) or شُطُوبٌ and شُطَبٌ and شُطُبٌ: (K: [in which it is said that the pl. is شُطُوبٌ and شُطَبٌ like غُرَفٌ and كُتُبٌ: but I think that شُطُوبٌ is a mistranscription, and that the right reading is شُطَبٌ and شُطُبٌ like غُرَفٌ and كُتُبٌ:]) hence it would seem that شُطَبٌ and شُطُبٌ are pls. of one sing.; but Ibn-Hishám El-Lakhmee expressly states that the former is pl. of شُطْبَةٌ; and the latter, of ↓ شَطِيبَةٌ; (MF;) of which شَطَائِبُ also is a pl.; (L in art. عمد;) and which signifies [the same as شُطْبَةٌ, i. e.] the rising عَمُود [i. e. the ridge] in the مَتْن of a sword.
