Utensil, tool (9)
I believe the answer is:
implement
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'utensil' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'tool' is the second definition.
(implement can mean a tool or utensil)
(Other definitions for implement that I've seen before include "agent" , "Put into effect; tool" , "Put into operation" , "Execute" , "Put into action - utensil" .)
