Saul beat Patrick in making kitchen tool (7)
I believe the answer is:
spatula
'kitchen tool' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'saul beat patrick in' is the wordplay.
'beat' indicates anagramming the letters.
'patrick' becomes 'pat' (short for Patrick).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'saul' anagrammed gives 'sula'.
'sula' enclosing 'pat' is 'SPATULA'.
'making' is the link.
(Other definitions for spatula that I've seen before include "Implement for mixing/spreading" , "Implement with a broad, flat blade" , "Food turner with flexible blade" , "Kitchen implement with a flat, blunt blade" , "Flat blade for mixing" .)
