      Almost 50% of 見覚え is *just* this exact formulation, and at least 85%+ 見覚え(の・が)(ある・ない) and variants.
      
      The glosses currently on 見覚え are a fair distance from how this is actually used.
      
      My context:
      あの戦士のほう見覚えがある. That warrior looks so familiar.
      2. I think I recognize this warrior.
      
      But that's with が.
      
      "recognizable", notably, does not work, since it means "generally recognizable".  Even though "I did/didn't recognize" would be common if converted, and would be appropriate on an entry for 見覚えがある
