Auctioneer's mallet (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gavel

'auctioneer's mallet' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gavel that I've seen before include "An auctioneer's wooden hammer" , "Judicial hammer" , "Small mallet" , "Judge's hammer" , "Ceremonial mallet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Mirror and The New York Times.
