clipper

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

This clue might be a double definition.

'cutter' is the first definition.
(I know that clipper is a type of scissors)

'some other ship?' is the second definition.
'clipper' can be an answer for 'ship?' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'some other' bit.

'or' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for clipper that I've seen before include "Sailing vessel" , "used to dock" , "Fast sailing ship; trimmer" , "Ticket inspector" , "that has slight collision with another?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
