Pruninghook

Pruning-hook (מִזמֵרָה, mazmerah; Sept. δρέπανον; Isa 2:4; Isa 18:5; Joel 4:10; Mic 4:3), a knife for pruning the vine. The manner of tzrimming the vine (זֵמִר, zamdr), signifying clipping, and also the singular instrument of the vine-dresser, were well known even in the time of Moses (Le 25:3-4), and no doubt both were similar to those employed by the Egyptians.
