means A hand- or power-tool with long blades used to trim hedges and shrubs into neat shapes.

from Straightforward compound: 'hedge' (Old English 'hecg,' a fence of bushes, related to 'hedge' as in boundary) plus 'clippers,' from 'clip,' a word borrowed from Old Norse 'klippa,' meaning to cut or shear with scissor-like force. No myth needed — just a blade named for the bush it was built to fight.
