   AK> "Cut" is not a verb.   
      
   I am sure it is:   
      
   I will have him repair my car.   
   I will have my car repaired.   
      
   `repair' is certainly a verb in both cases.  You may call it   
   a past participal in the second instance, because it   
   partakes of the verb, or, is partially a verb. Analyse the   
   present-tense example, if you like it more: "I will have her   
   cut my hair," where `cut' is a verb beyond the faintest   
   shadow of a doubt.
