AFAIK never used in canon.
Related words:
poD be clipped (v)
poDmoH clip (v)
DuQ stab (v)
pe' cut (v)
SIj slit (v)
jIb hair (on head) (n)
loch mustache (n)
rol beard (n)
Can {chip} be used for cutting or trimming other things - e.g. prune a plant - or do we use {poD] and {poDmoH} for that? E.g.
KGT 172f.: One form of nonstandard speech that is heard rather frequently is what is called {tlhIngan Hol poD} ("Clipped Klingon") or simply {Hol poD} ("clipped language").
