I remember this character by looking at the left part of the character; which looks like a piece of carved wood. While the right part looks in many aspects like a sharp knife.
To me it looks like a person going skiing (the left part is the person wearing skis, the right is the skiing poles. I don’t know any skiing lingo but I feel like they would say they are ‘carving’ the snow?
The middle part of the left part looks like a number 4 and the right part means a knife, which looks like slicing a thing into four slices using a knife.
The knife radical in it makes me think an hour has been cut into 4 pieces.

The character on the right looks like a knife. The second part of the character looks like it has been cut into a quarter.
i remember part of hai of haizi and with a straight line down and a check
the knife radical would mean the time is divided into parts
It has the knife radical because it splits the clock into sections.
The middle part of the left part looks like a number 4 and the right part means a knife, which looks like slicing a thing into four slices using a knife.
it is a knife cutting half of the character in halt – thus a quarter
On the left it looks like there is a “4” which helps me to remember this means a quarter (1/4)
