Fencing weapon (4)

I think it could be either:

epee

foil

'fencing weapon' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for foil that I've seen before include "Queer" , "Check" , "metal used in > sword" , "Baffle" , "Hinder - prevent" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, The New York Times, the Newsday and The Times.
