Knowing (5)

I think it could be either:

aware

canny

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for aware that I've seen before include "Knowing (of something)" , "fly" , "Cognisant, mindful" , "Conscious or having knowledge of" , "Apprised or informed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, The Telegraph and the King Feature Syndicate.
