How People Actually Use It

A threat that you will cut off someone's fingers, hand, arm etc. unless they stop bugging or annoying you (hopefully not literally). An amputated limb is called a stump, so unless they stop touching you, you'll cut something off and they will draw back a stump...not a hand.

"You touch me again and you'll draw back a stump!"
