Cut (5)

Ross

'cut' is the definition.
(shearing is a kind of cutting)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for shear that I've seen before include "Cut with clippers" , "strain" , "Fleece; cut" , "shave" , "Remove sheep's wool" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Irish Independent, The Star Tribune, The Wall Street Journal, the Penny Press, The Telegraph, the LA Times and The New York Times.
