This is my favorite separate effect from Sankey (if that makes sense). This cleverly modified
gimmick does about all the work, and it's choreographed to get you in and out clean. The gimmick is
EXTREMELY durable and almost made entirely for you. The only thing you need to do is touch up a
little part of it, but Jay clearly goes through the entire simple process for you.
The DVD
offers some really clever and very clean handlings. SOme are including ungimmicked versions of it
which look nice, but watch your angles. The gimmicked version is just about angle proof. One thing I
should mention quickly, is I had a little problem. The gimmick Jay supplied me with was very scuffed
and didn't look nice. Just saying you could get one from a bad batch. Most likely not though
1 of 1 magicians found this helpful.
It's a very clever gimmick that allows you to do this miraculous transformation. With the very
basic, simple handling, you don't even need to learn any sleights; no palming or switching required.
But of course, your props aren't immediately examinable under these conditions.
You just
need to become comfortable handling the gimmick, so that you can keep track of its orientation.
Once you get used to the basic handling, you can then move on and try to add some switches that make
the routine seriously baffling.
This is a fun item to play around with, especially for a
beginner. Definitely something worth keeping in your bag of tricks.
Jay Sankey never disappoints. What I like most about this trick (as with most Sankey tricks) is
that it uses something other than cards, i.e. everyday objects. Keep this one in your pocket or
your key ring. With minimal sleights, its one that can be mastered in no time.
THIS IS ONE OF MY GREATER EFFECTS IM ONLY 14 BUT I HAVE BEEN IN MAGIC FOR 2 YEARS. EVERY BODY GETS
STUMPED BY THIS ONE AND THERE ARE EVEN GIMMICKED AND NON GIMMICKED HANDLING WHICH I LOVE. I RECOMEND
THIS ALL THE WAY nobody expects the nickel to trun into a key they go nuts. bottom line you want
something with almost no sleight of hand that hits big get it.
Killer key is amazing it is easy to learn and it is easy to do. Jay Sankey explains it perfectly.

BUY IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are looking for something with good quality and that will last a long time then this is the
trick for you. This is one of the most versatile tricks that penguin sells.
If you are looking for a great effect that is easy to do where the gimmick already comes and
everything is self-working then add to cart now. I always have the key and nickel in my pocket at
all times because it gets huge reactions.
Ok, for those who want to perform a true miracle but don't know any sleight of hands, this for
you!!!
Since you don't need slight of hand to perform it, you can focus on your
presentation, which is the reason I think it is perfect for beginners. (Although slight of hands are
not needed in this trick, you might also want to learn more handings from the DVD, so that you can
make the whole performence more convincing.)
P.S. - The DVD comes with it is really good,
teaches a lot of bonus handlings which is really really worth buying.
Get it! nothing more
to say.
This is the best (and simplest) trick I've got from Penguin!
It's completely self -
working! I don't know about the canadian currency but this doesn't break as easily and the plating
is not coming off easily. I now wonder if it is a plating. The DVD teaches the excellent way to
perform it without the gimmick, too. Hurry! Get this now!
This is the BEST trick to meet women. You use a nickel (women love money) and a key. You tell her
this is the key to your heart. Then they change places and she is amazed. Follow this with an
Ambitious Card Routine and you are guaranteed to get her telephone number!
