Barber's sharpener (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strop

'barber's sharpener' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for strop that I've seen before include "Razor-sharpener" , "Display of temper" , "Razor sharpener" , "Prime cutthroat" , "fit of anger" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Penny Press and the Universal.
