Fight with swords (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fence

(Other definitions for fence that I've seen before include "Barrier - engage in swordplay" , "Barrier; receiver" , "Handler of stolen goods" , "Guard" , "Barrier; deal in stolen goods" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
