A handy skill? (7)

I believe the answer is:

sleight

'a handy skill?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sleight that I've seen before include "Conjuror uses this" , "Artful trick" , "Dexterity (usually of hand)" , "distraction?" , "Skilful deception" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
