Short axe (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hatchet

(Other definitions for hatchet that I've seen before include "Small axe with a short handle" , "Make the peace - bury the . . . . . . ." , "Hand-held chopping instrument" , "Bury this to make friends again" , "Sort of job" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
