Courtroom hammer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gavel

'courtroom hammer' 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 "Small hammer" , "Chairman's hammer" , "Judicial hammer" , "Judge's hammer" , "Small mallet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Newsday.com, the L.A. Times Daily, the USA Today and the Universal.
