Curved sword — I'm carried by stupid racist (8)
I believe the answer is:
scimitar
'curved sword' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'i'm carried by stupid racist' is the wordplay.
'carried by' indicates putting letters inside.
'stupid' is an anagram indicator (in a stupid order).
'racist' anagrammed gives 'scitar'.
'im' going within 'scitar' is 'SCIMITAR'.
(Other definitions for scimitar that I've seen before include "Eastern sword" , "Type of sword with curved blade" , "This cut" , "Double-edged sword" , "Short curved oriental sword" .)
