Can anybody id the switchblade knife that Rene Russo uses briefly in "The Thomas Crown Affair"? It has a set of brass knuckles like a 1918 Trench Knife, but opens automatically.

Its a very good movie, by the way; a worthy successor to the Stevew McQueen version.

Anything with Rene Russo in it has to be good, I'd sit and stay if her picture were painted on the side of a barn.

Is she wearing that skimpy dress holding the Switchblade??? Oh, OH… Down Boy, DOWN!!!

She pulls it when she has broken into Crown's house and is searching for the stolen painting. She wears a black dress, black leather jacket, and high black boots. The clothing reminded me of the black leather "skulking" suit that Emma Peel used to wear in The Avengers tv show (Dame Diana Rigg for those who don't remember).
