Hi Guys - sorry still on yesterday's Guardian Prize...last two:
25d. Kris , perhaps beginning to eat grass, stood up K-IO-E
13 a: Cut away skin, inserting key R-S-I-D

I can only think of 'knife' and 'rescind' but they don't really fit the clues! Can anyone help?
thanks

A kris is a type of dagger, so knife would fit. Fink reversed + e(at)?

both right.

25d. Kris , perhaps beginning to eat grass, stood up.

Kris = Knife ,A Grass(informer) is a Fink

13 a: Cut away skin, inserting key.

skin = rind
key = Esc(escape key on keyboard)
