It's she, actually.
Call me pedantic, but to me handles are found on kitchen knives and cutlery not bladed weapons like swords and daggers. I used the word 'weapons' not generic cutting tools. Yes, any cutting tool can be used as a weapon, but I am decrying the usage for cutting tools specifically designed as weapons.
I very much suspect there's an autocorrect or editorial thing going on here, probably with N American authors (probably female authors at that).
