Cut (4)

Ross

'cut' is the definition.
(shearing is a kind of cutting)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for shear that I've seen before include "Cut with clippers" , "strain" , "Fleece; cut" , "shave" , "Remove sheep's wool" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Irish Independent, the LA Times, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Evening Standard, The Star Tribune and the Penny Press.
