köken: From Middle High German schære, from Old High German scāri, plural of scār, from Proto-West Germanic *skeran. The spelling with -e- (instead of Schäre) is East Central German, probably reinforced by the related verb scheren (“to shear”). Cognate with Dutch schaar, English shears.
köken: Inherited from Old French cisel, chisel, from Vulgar Latin *cisellum < *caesellum, from Latin caesus, from caedō. Compare Occitan cisèl, Catalan cisell, Italian cesello, Portuguese cinzel, Spanish cincel.
köken: Inherited from Old Spanish tixera, tisera, from Latin (ferramenta) tōnsōria, from tōnsus. Compare Portuguese tesoura, Galician tesoiras, Asturian tixeres, tisories, Catalan tisores. The unexpected -i- in the Spanish, Asturian, and Catalan forms may perhaps be explained due to influence from synonymous but unrelated Old French cisoires, ciseaux

The modern sense of "scissors" is apparently because scissor blades swing like a goat's legs. Alternatively, from obsolete sense "rafter" (attested in 1669), in which case possibly inherited from Proto-Uralic *ulke (“pole, post”).
köken: Likely from Malay gunting, ultimately likely a loan from some non-Austronesian source, such as Chinese, according to Blust (2010–).
