Mystery scissors





These unusual scissors have a notch one one blade, wide at the cutting face and narrowing towards the bottom.  It looks like they're designed to cut threads, but their exact purpose eludes me.  Any ideas?

I have a pair exactly the same. I was told they were for candle makers and fuse cotters.
