Bhurij (used in the dual only) is a word of somewhat doubtful sense. Roth¹ regarded it as meaning in some passages² ‘scissors,’ and in others³ an apparatus consisting of two arms used by the chariot-maker for fixing the wood at which he worked, being of the nature of a carpenter’s vice. See also Kṣura.
