Edges of aluminium razor shaved face of noble warrior (6)
I believe the answer is:
amazon
'warrior' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'edges of aluminium razor shaved face of noble' is the wordplay.
'edges of' means to remove the middle letters.
'aluminium' becomes 'alum' (alum is a kind of aluminium).
'shaved' indicates the central letters.
'face of' indicates taking the first letters.
'alum' with its centre removed is 'am'.
The central letters of 'razor' are 'azo'.
The first letter of 'noble' is 'n'.
'am'+'azo'+'n'='AMAZON'
(Other definitions for amazon that I've seen before include "woman soldier" , "S. America's longest river" , "running through Peru, Colombia and Brazil" , "One of a mythic nation of women warriors" , "Legendary woman warrior and river" .)
