† neufen.¹

Origin: Of uncertain origin.

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps the same word as neufe n.² (although this is attested only later), with extended sense ‘sword grip’ (compare nieve n. 2a).An alternative etymology connects the word with Middle French noeuf knot (although this is first attested slightly later: a1588), variant of Middle French neu , nou , noud (1119 in Old French as neu ; French nœud ) < classical Latin nōdus knot (see node n.), and perhaps compare French nœud d'épée ribbon rosette decorating a sword hilt (1812). This etymology assumes a more specific interpretation of the sense, as ‘sword-knot’, but this seems unlikely at so early a date.

Heraldry. Obsolete. rare.

An (unidentified) part of the handle or grip of a sword. (In quot. 1688 apparently: the guard of a sword.)
