I've mulled over this all weekend and I'm at a loss.
20d. Clip vertically say (5)
I've got S?O?R
I cannot think of anything that answers the clue :(

Thank you Chrise.
I'm now wondering whether the answer is SABER?
will have to switch my thinking on to getting a B in my 22a answer :)

Thank you.
I get the clip (as in to cut/trim) but not the vertical bit?

A sheer cliff would be a vertical one.
