Unknown pliers

[JimU]

Came across these and don't know what they could be for.
Anyone have an idea?
Thanks

They kind of look like pinch clamp pliers. I've never seen that version, so I can't be sure.

Almost looks like something the Forged Steel Products Company would of put out as they had a lot of specialty pliers but the handle design doesn’t look correct for that.

How about this, S hook pliers, whatever that is

And this is probably the money shot when that pic stream goes away, patent info.

Judging from the videos it's to bend S hooks closed around chains so they don't fall off.

Looks to me like a hoof nipper, for trimming horse and cow hooves.
