pincers

And the nightmare clutch laid hold upon his heart with giant pincers.

Some of the figures are being roasted, twitched with red-hot pincers, partly baked, or forced to swallow fire.

He was conscious of a brief pain in one finger, and the next instant someone tore the finger out of his hand with red hot pincers.

He had put on a stone-cloth shirt, and seizing iron pincers, he lifted off an iron cover.

The pincers gripe, the pliers handle; the one is like the closed hand, the other like the fingers.
