Stick with rune notch carved (9)
I believe the answer is:
truncheon
'stick' is the definition.
(truncheon is a kind of stick)
'with rune notch carved' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'carved' is an anagram indicator.
'rune' put next to 'notch' is 'runenotch'.
'runenotch' anagrammed gives 'TRUNCHEON'.
(Other definitions for truncheon that I've seen before include "Police weapon" , "Policeman's traditional weapon" , "Police staff" , "Peelers' baton" , "Police baton" .)
