It can’t be a pruning shear. It has parallel lines in the jaws. The photos are not good quality to see it properly.

Correct, but maybe there was an unusual application that required jaws like these to be effective.

Maybe, but then I would think for special unusual application brands like Snap On or Knipex would make the tool. This looks like a Chinese made tool.
