Trained and incisive (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pointed

This clue is a double definition.

'trained' is the first definition.
(pointing is a kind of training)

'incisive' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for pointed that I've seen before include "Of remark, direct and cutting" , "Sharp-ended" , "Sharp -- indicated" , "Sharply tapered" , "Barbs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
