Sword belonging to Ernest O’Casey (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

estoc

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

'belonging to ernest o'casey' is the wordplay.
'belonging to' indicates a hidden word (I've seen this in other clues).
'ESTOC' can be found hidden inside 'ernest ocasey'.

(Other definitions for estoc that I've seen before include "Stabbing sword" , "Small sticker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
