I have a pair that I got from walmart sewing notions. They came in a pack with some needles and pins. I think I paid about 88 cents for it. I also have some made by frisker. I found them with scissors and they were called thread snips. I really like them when I chain piece.

I got my first ones in Japan in 1978...Clover make them and I am sure there are many clones. Good luck in your hunt.
P.S. the ones from Japan are wrapped in cord on the handle, orange and cream, with a tassel at the base. All of my others (about 5) are similar to the one you display.

Yes, they are really handy to have at your sewing machine to clip threads and corners off of squares.
