Think of a fruit growing from a tree (木). On the top left, the character looks like alphabet “L”, which reminds us of the word Li.

This looks like fruit is growing on top of the tree radical, just like pears do

Looks and sounds similar to 李友的李 with a different radical position. What we have is wood, knife and grain and overall it looks like a pear, one which is fat from the bottom and slimmer at the top.

Looks like the “WOOD” is being chopped by the knife radical on top of a “PEAR” tree.

梨 looks like wood radical making us understand it is a plant, and then knife because you cut the skin off a pear with a knife

the bottom part of the character is the wood and we can see the upper part as a pear growing on the tree

the second radical 刂 looks like the opposite appearance of “LI”. And the radical three reminds me that pear grows from a tree.
