We have an ID! A kind of garden shears for cutting flowers; the shears grab the cut stems so they don’t fall down.

Somewhere along the way I acquired this pair of scissors with an unexpected feature. They cut like scissors. The extra thingummy sticking out one side of the pair of blades is the question.

So far, I’ve wondered if it’s a guide for cutting 3/8 inch (10mm) from a given mark on the thing being cut, while spouse wonders if it’s meant to keep one cut piece from falling to the ground.
