Being sharp, maybe hurts no end! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thrust

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'no end' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'being sharp maybe hurts' is the wordplay.
'being sharp' becomes 't' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'maybe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hurts' anagrammed gives 'hrust'.
't'+'hrust'='THRUST'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for thrust that I've seen before include "Push forcefully" , "Lunge forward" , "Push powerfully; stab" , "Push forward with truths" , "Sudden movement - main gist" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
