No. Stilletos are fixed knives with moderately long, very narrow blades that may be used in hand or thrown.

The blade is then forced out of the handle by a spring with sufficient force to lock it in a fixed position. There are basically two kinds. One in which the blade comes straight out tip first. The more common switchblade is a folded knife and when the release button is pressed, the blade swings out and around like a regular clasp pocket knife. Switchblades are frequently considered illegal weapons.
