How to unlock the Clean Cut achievement in The Surge 2 - Definitive Guide

Sneak up behind an enemy and target one of their limbs, move forward until you get the backstab icon (Red circle on back), press cn_RB to backstab and then press cn_RB again to attack the selected limb.

I had an issue where I would do this and the achievement wouldn't unlock, killing the enemy with one hit (or knocking them off the edge) seemed to do the trick. With this in mind there are a lot of low, unarmored enemies in the Detention Centre that are perfect for this.

Recently unlocked the achievement on the Windows 10 version of the game. With a MKIII weapon on a MK1 enemy (the one sitting by the lockers in the detention center). Target one of the unarmored limbs. If done right, a slight slow motion animation should be seen. It indeed has to be a one-hit kill.

I got this when doing a basic  combo with a one-handed sword weapon but I'll be honest, I'm not even sure what happened. I believe the basic method is to be fighting multiple enemies at once (though it can be done against a single enemy) and since most of your moves will flow together and have forward and backward motion, eventually you'll kill an enemy with a follow-up swing to an attack. So long as you were targeting an arm or leg during this attack, it will get cut off and unlock the achievement.

The trophy was given after I made a backstub and then hit.

If you don’t have any upgraded weapons yet, then go back to the prison, there are the weakest mobs there.

To get this achievement you need to kill! Take a heavier weapon, sneak up and hit an unprotected part of the body. So you'll get it faster

I advise you to surprise the enemy with a weapon with electricity (Starfish Drone to help), then approach his back, bring him to his knees and kill him with one blow, carefully tracking his HP amount before doing this.
