How to use current \item symbol outside of \itemize list?

Let's say I have some latex template (using the default beamer style here). This template is defining some specific symbol for the \items in the itemize environments. Is it possible to use the same symbol without using an itemize environment?

I'd like this to work independently of the concrete symbol that is being used. For instance beamer uses some kind of triangular arrow symbol, while the default article uses a bullet point. I'd like to be able to extract the currently used symbol no matter what it is.

E.g.

\documentclass{beamer}\begin{document}\begin{frame}\begin{itemize}    \item Item with symbol.\end{itemize}I want to use item symbol again here: SYMBOLHERE\end{frame}\end{document}
