I think it's:

"Cut right to the chase", or simply "Cut to the chase": get to the point without wasting time.

Because the picture is:

Cut. Right [to]. Chess.

    $\begingroup$ @Bass It might have come from here. Blame the user "Clker-Free-Vector-Images" on that site. Their icon is a fish. I don't think fish know how to play chess. $\endgroup$

Possibly:

Split down the middle, meaning divide into equal parts.

Explanation:

Scissors are used to cut/divide/split things. The arrow is pointing at the middle of the chess board, which if cut would divide it into two equal halves.
