Help in making the cut (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scissors

(Other definitions for scissors that I've seen before include "Tool with two crossed blades" , "Paper/fabric cutters" , "lock" , "Equipment for dealing with locks" , "Cutting tool" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
