Snipe is the defect created at the beginning or end of a board when using a planer. The planer cuts a little deeper into the wood as the workpiece enters or leaves the planer. The length of the snipe cut is the distance between the cutterhead and the infeed or outfeed rollers. There is a good explanation here - woodgears.ca/jointer/planer_snipe.html
