Fake-fingertips

Armstrong attempts to dislodge the fake hands from the rail of the fire escape by kicking.

Misnomer for what is actually a set of two complete fake hands and forearms.

The "old fake fingertips on the fire escape trick" is used by Maxwell Smart as a diversion against Chuck Armstrong before a fight on the roof of the Smarts' apartment building. When Armstrong is busy kicking at the fake hands, Max approaches him from behind.
