Hand shears, large handheld utensil for cutting

ExampleMeaning
And we started at seven-o'clock in the morning in the back lawn to take these horses and you put ropes on to trip them. Throw them down. Turn them up on their back and geld them, you-know-what-I-mean? And if they'd any bad feet, you'd grab the snips and see that their feet were ready to go. Turn them over, put the saddle on them and this is one thing that is a terrible again.
