The Linkey gimmick is simple genius. It is a
smack-yourself-on-the-forehead-"Why-didn't-I-think-of-that?" kind of invention.
Wait, let
me take a moment and calm down from smacking myself on the forehead...ok...back to the review:
I am not a skilled magician, just a novice. Someone like me will have to practice a bit to get
everything down smooth and for me it will take a few hours. I am not smooth. I am only a hobbiest
and just a part time one at that because of work, time spent with the Lord, and other things.
But for real magicians, even novice magicians, a few minutes with Linkey and it will be an "8"
on a scale of 1-10 as far as audience reaction I think. It's neat and different and very much worth
having and the price is more than fair.
Alan Rorrison is a great teacher and the DVD
captures and holds your attention. He is thorough, sincere, and you can tell He genuinely wants his
creation to work for you and genuinely believes it will...and He is right.
I gave 4 stars
instead of 5 only because it isn't completely examinable if someone with no slight of heand
skill like myself performs it, but for any magician it can easily be made to appear that it has
indeed been fairly and fully examined both before and after that "magic" has happened.
That
being said, I will still work this puppy and have fun doing it! :)

This is a great prop that you can bring with you everywhere you go.The prop is very well made, and
it will last you a very long time (if not a life time) with care. Its sturdy and works great. You
can attach the key to any rubber band, anther key if you buy this twice, and a thin necklace. This
is very easy to learn and preform. the moves are very well taught on the DVD. This prop is great to
end any rubber band routine. Recommended.

Sorry for my english but this trick rock .i think that if joe porper would have create and sell it,
it will be around 200 usd so what you get for 20 usd is like a chinese price for an original and
super precision gimmick key
So very happy with this and it´s the first time that i take 5 min
for write something .beleive me

This is a well made gimick. With just a little work on your part (making the key an actual working
key and practice of the effect), you will have another anytime, anywhere effect. Great impact and
easy manipulation.

Had my doubts, but this is great! Excellent product, extremely well made, should last for ages.
This is something you could carry at all times and be prepared to amaze withought a thought. Going
to part of my key ring for a long time to come.

As already said, the gimmick's awesome and made well. In the 'inflated' world of magic an item as
this it's mfgr. and creator are to be cherished.
To think I got this in a 'Cool Box'. When
I saw the precision I felt like I got away with a larceny. If I'd known what it was prior, it would
have been a done deal.
Regardless, the effect is awesome, it can fit anytime, and anywhere
you want carrying it with you... and it will last a lifetime.

The gimmick may be well made, but the secret is incredibly obvious and can be seen clearly in the
video itself. I agree with the other poster who could not understand why there are so many glowing
reviews on this.

gimmick is neat, well-made. The linking onto the rubberband looks good and is very easy to do. I
have difficulty unlinking it however, not sure if my gimmick is defective, I suspect this. Watched
the instructions numerous times and it shouldn't be difficult to unlink it. Thought I would mention
it in case others run into the same problem. Gimmick is not examinable. A normal key is given so you
will have to switch it out. Is nice and compact which is a plus

Misleading, awkward, difficult to work; overpriced for what it does, which is none too good.

I JUST RECEIVED AND AFTER OPENING IT I WAS ABLE TO PREFORM IT WITH ONLY 5 MINUTES SHOULD BE NAMED
EASYLINKEY...ITS THE BEST AND FASTED ITEM ON A RUBBER BAND OUT AS OF TODAY,BUT BE CAREFUL THE END IS
