End opposite the point (6)
I believe the answer is:
eraser
'end opposite the point' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for eraser that I've seen before include "Stationery item" , "What a poor artist needs" , "Required, should you make a mistake" , "Rubs out" , "What may remove" .)
