By which something is held (6)

I believe the answer is:

handle

'by which something is held' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for handle that I've seen before include "Manipulate; name" , "Grip, hold" , "Trade in" , "Part by which something is carried" , "Knob" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
