Axe (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

hatchet

chopper

'axe' is the definition.
(hatchet is a kind of axe)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hatchet that I've seen before include "chopper" , "Hand-held chopping instrument" , "Sort of job" , "Small axe with a short handle" , "One makes short cuts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
