Sword or dagger handle (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hilt

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">sword or dagger handle</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hilt that I've seen before include "Handle of bladed weapon" , "Handle of a sword or dagger" , "Sword/dagger handle" , "One may back up to this" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
