Can You Identify These Vintage Items?

I purchased these in Nebraska recently.  I knew what two of them were, but one had me stumped.
See how you do:
 
 A.

B.
How did you do?  I was actually able to identify A 
because of hanging around rural farm auctions.
They are calf weaners -- attach them to the calf's nose and they can't nurse.
I thought maybe B was a cigar trimmer, no.
It is an Italian brass candle trimmer with a stand.
All going on ebay.

    Poor ol Bossy would kick the calf out of the county if it tried to nurse with C on.

    Thought B was candle trimmer scissors.
