First of all, sorry if my English is not perfect (I am French).
A little disappointed by the Z
fold Wallet (locking) 2.0, reason why I will only put 3 stars.
First thing, this wallet is not a
"Z fold" (with a particular system allowing to keep a part o the wallet closed, magnet or other),
but simply a Himber wallet. Those who know the Himber Wallet will therefore know exactly what they
are buying. Secondly, the wallet does not seem to me to be very credible: rigid aspect, Himber
system too visible for such a small wallet, in short not too convincing in my opinion (unlike the Z
fold wallet "regular" by TTC, really very good, that I just received and which I will talk about on
its page). Another complaint (and maybe the most important): very difficult to easily introduce a
playing card in the space provided, really narrow! Astonishing for a wallet specially made for
this...

Simply, one of the best Z-Fold wallet out there! The automatic locking mechanism allows for a more
casual handling of the wallet when you load or extract the contents of the wallet.
I also
have the original version which was sent to me by mistake. I informed Penguin Magic and they
instantly shipped the correct 2.0 version! Talk about great customer service!
Now,
comparing the the two versions, the 2.0 seems to be a bit thicker as compared the original one,
however the added locking mechanism is a real upgrade and good enough reason to get this wallet.

Still new and not used much yet, but it definitely works well! If it is durable, probably worth
twice the price. From standard closeup distance doesn't look like a Zfold ... frankly I was
surprised at the quality. Worth having!

This is too thick and clumsy just facilitate "locking". The straps get in the way. The older version
is thinner and better.
First, I realize this is a budget switch wallet. The wallet seems well-built and would likely be a
worker. However, portions of this wallet stick up making this look suspect. If the wallet laid flat
when opened, I think it could be quite deceiving, but it doesn't. I'm not just being a fussy
magician here, either. The wallet just looks strange when opened making it unusable. I wish I had
opened the package earlier, as I think I'm well outside of the return period. TCC typically makes
such wonderful items. I wish this was one of them. I'm torn between finding someone who might want
it or potentially ruining it and trying to cut and glue it so that everything sits more flush. Hate
to add another trick to die in the drawer.
Over Annaylzing things here. It works though I think the plastic inside cover draws the audience to
it too much. The older flat and plain looking wallets sort of fly by folks focus. I've had a
couple ask to see the TCC which is thicker than the odler versions. Still a very good product
though :)
This wallet uses the same design and himber style gimmick as the original Uday swap wallet which I
have as well.This wallet does look nicer and is more durable and slightly better quality and is cm
shorter but it is a lot thicker than the Uday swap wallet. The locking straps on the tcc wallet are
a little to loose because their slightly to long so when you open the wallet and show it open from
the back theirs a visible gap between the two halves of the wallet which the Uday wallet does not
have this problem because the locking straps on the Uday wallet have less slack and hold the two
halves of the wallet closer together leaving no visible gap which looks better but I still like the
tcc wallet better because it looks more like a real wallet and is more durable. The artificial
leather used on the tcc version is thicker
