Crossword Genius

Respectable hand (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

straight

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'respectable' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'hand' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for straight that I've seen before include "Without deviations or curves" , "(Of drink) undiluted" , "Not curved or bent" , "Honest - direct" , "Directly; neat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
