Let me say up front that I know nothing about Knight Rhoades.
However, your description of the "Sleight-of-Hand Cop" made
me think of Nash Bridges. He is also a San Francisco cop who
uses sleight of hand, mostly card tricks, to disarm suspects.
As a matter of fact, he has literally disarmed suspects with
misdirection as well as handcuffing criminals without their
realizing it, until they try to run or get violent. This
happened more often in the earlier seasons, but it still
occasionally shows up.
