the.com/kitchen shears

means A heavy-duty pair of scissors built for kitchen jobs like cutting through poultry, trimming herbs, or snipping open packaging that regular scissors won't survive.

from 'Kitchen' goes back to Old English 'cycene,' borrowed from Latin 'coquina' (a cooking room), itself from 'coquere,' to cook. 'Shears' traces to Old English 'sceran,' to cut or shear, the same root that gives us 'shear' as in sheep-shearing — originally any large cutting tool, later specialized for the hinged, scissor-like blades used on wool, metal, or (eventually) chicken bones. Put together, the phrase is a fairly plain 18th-/19th-century compound: the cutting tool, assigned to the room where it's used.
