Dicky lent us one kitchen implement (7)
I believe the answer is:
utensil
'kitchen implement' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'dicky lent us one' is the wordplay.
'dicky' indicates anagramming the letters (dicky can mean ill or non-functioning).
'one' becomes 'I' (Roman numeral).
'lent'+'us'+'i'='lentusi'
'lentusi' with letters rearranged gives 'UTENSIL'.
(Other definitions for utensil that I've seen before include "Tool for practical use" , "Useful tool" , "A tool for household use" , "E.g. colander" , "Gadget" .)
