"Amanda has crafted a piece of magic that will be left in the memories of audiences for years. I'm sure spectators will hold on to the impossible object wondering how it possibly was done." - Alex Boyce

Perform a visual transformation of a card that leaves your audience with an impossible object. With just a touch of the finger, the index of a card transforms from the wrong card to the selected card and gets a crazy reaction. From the mind of one of the youngest people to ever fool Penn & Teller, this is Diamond Cutter by Amanda Nepo.

Here’s what happens:

The magician has a card selected and then lost in the deck. The magician snaps her fingers and then triumphantly reveals… the wrong card. It's the five of diamonds, though the audience card chosen was actually the three of diamonds--so close! In an effort to fix the situation, the magician tears off the bottom two diamonds leaving three diamonds on the torn card, but the index, of course, remains a five. Then, in an impossible moment, the magician rubs the index of the card, and the five transforms into a three, leaving the torn card with the correct index and number of pips even though the complete face was shown as the five just a moment ago. Everything is examinable.

Diamond Cutter comes with 27 gimmicks that you can start using to perform right away. This effect is fantastic as a stand-alone piece or as a kicker to your favorite card routine. The method is super easy to do, and the strange configuration of the pips on the card at the end of the routine gives your audience not just a great souvenir but a wonderful conversation piece. You will love the creativity that goes into the pip change, and you’ll learn a new concept that you will want to add to your other card effects. Get killer reactions when you snatch an incredible transformation from the jaws of defeat with Diamond Cutter by Amanda Nepo.

Truly great effect. New. Different. Not the same old card trick. Yes is a small amount of arts and crafts but some of the best stuff requires a little diy. The effect itself is killer. Like Amanda talks about you can present this in anyway you want. Super awesome seeing a young girl out here killing it! The tutorial was better than most ones we see these days. Some people should take notes. I appreciate the super close up view during the cutting. Anyway great effect. 5 stars. Magic world watch out! Hurricane Amanda is already here!

Fun and ingenious Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 30th, 2022
I really love the misdirection that is involved with this. It's a simple concept, but the trick is very easy to perform. The most difficult aspect is a f**** that anyone who does card tricks should already be able to perform well. There is a little bit of arts and crafts involved in the setup, but nothing too difficult, and that particular gimmick could even be reused. I am already envisioning various ways to develop my own routine with this, perhaps in conjunction with Little Door.

Amanda does a great job on the video instructions as well. She explains everything clearly and in great detail. I'm looking forward to seeing what else this new young talent offers us in the future.

I don't imagine refills will be offered, because the package isn't too outrageously priced and is essentially a pack of refills already. The amount of gimmicks provided is pretty generous for the price.

I so wanted to love this trick, as it is a FANTASTIC one! However, I am not very good at doing Arts & Crafts. Therefore, I will not be performing this one as much as I do my others. I wish Penguin Magic advised other magicians that “assembly is required” when purchasing a new trick.

By far the absolute best trick I ever owned Report this review

Amanda has HIT THIS ONE OUT OF THE BALL PARK! So, I made one gimmick as directed, made another, a little sloppy but still. I did it ONE TIME for a client at a DJ gig (www.magicdjs.com) and nailed it and blew them away!

Did it for my grandson, BLEW HIM AWAY

Did it for client today when booking a wedding sitting down, at Starbucks across from them. Didn't care about angles, didn't care about the tilt Amanda warns you about, IT DOESN'T MATTER they never see this coming! BAM!

I'm getting chills writing this as I know it's a killer routine. I even preload the deck with it and move the card I need to force to the top of the deck in front of them by removing the Jokers. UNBELIEVABLE!

Amanda, you need to write me. Boy have a I got a trick I'm creating called: THE WEDGE!

Leave it to a woman to kick the butt of us men. BRAVO ZULU!

Many uses for freedom Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 15th, 2022
Amanda points this out during the tutorial. This has alot of freedom and can be used to add to a routine or simply a standalone effect. I bought it for the Gimmick and I don't have any regrets. Great effect Amanda.

Solid As a Diamond Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 29th, 2022
You will have a huge smile on your face when you see the workings of this one. A lot of different ways to go as far as performance options. Extremely easy to perform and a gob smack on the end. A very nice routine for a good price!

I’m a big fan of Amanda’s since I saw her win on ‘Fool Us’, so I was excited to see that she had something to sell here. The trick looks amazing, I bought it immediately! I love this trick! It’s so imaginative and easy to set up and perform!
I really recommend this! It’s amazing!

Killer Effect Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 7th, 2022
I ordered Diamond Cutter and have been playing with it for about a week. It is incredibly easy to perform and hits spectators hard. The change is visual and the fact that you are able to literally hand the card out to the spectator to keep at the end turns this into a mind-blowing effect. I can't wait to see more from Amanda.
