A quick draw/sneak attack feat

[Drake M]

Ok. Somewhere, in the billion 3.0/3.5 resources, there is a feat that lets a rogue sneak attack after drawing their weapon.

It operates on the idea that you surprise the enemy that did not know you had a weapon. Problem is, I CANNOT find it anywhere. Does anyone know what this feat is or where it's from?

 

[Evhelm]

I can say that that sounds familiar, but not where I saw it. Are you certain it was a feat? The nagging feeling I've got says that it might have been a (prestige) class feature. (Though it could also have been a feat, with the proliferation of resources being what it is!)

I'd say check the Complete Scoundrel, but you've probably already scoured it....!

It's in the 3.0 class guide for Rogues and Bards - 'Song and Silence'. IIRC, it's called 'Flick of the Wrist'. It was reprinted in 3.5, but I don't remember where.

This skill trick comes close.

Sudden Draw
Manipulation
PrerequiitesL Sleight of Hand 8 ranks, Quick Draw feat

In an AoO, draw a hidden weapon as immediate action, target is flat-footed to that attack.

 

[Shin Okada]

It is neither feat nor skill trick but there is an entry in Complete Warrior P.122 which expands the usage of Sleight of Hand skill.

You can quick draw a dagger palmed in your hand and make your opponent flat-footed (only for one attack, though).

Flick of the Wrist was the one i was thinking of, but the other suggestions may prove handy.

I'm in a pirate campaign where i play a gnome pirate, overcompensating for his size by having 6 loaded flintlocks on him at all times. This completely fits his character, surprising people who were not expecting yet another pistol from nowhere.

The first time was unexpected, but the second time was really unexpected.

Place a bag of holding in your characters' sleeve?
