'sharp end' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'one's argument?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'the' (both can introduce a definite example of something).
'argument?' becomes 'point' (I've seen this in another clue).
'the'+'point'='THE POINT'

'of' is the link.
