side cutter
side cutter n. (a) a cutting blade or other device positioned at the side of a tool, machine, etc.; (b) (in plural) a pair of strong blades incorporated into a pair of pliers, typically used for cutting wire; (also) a pair of handheld clippers having such blades, used only for cutting wire, sheet metal, etc. (cf. wire-cutter n. (a) at wire n.1 Compounds 2a, snip n. 8, and tinsnips n.). [The semantic motivation for sense (b) is unclear; it may have arisen because in pliers such blades are typically located off-centre.]
