I used to everyday carry a JOL (small) No Palm Wallet. I wanted to try other wallets and the Real
Man's Wallet seemed very affordable and had a lot of great reviews so I purchased one.
PROS:
*It looks like a real bifold wallet and you can use it as an everyday bifold wallet.
*The "loading chamber" is well hidden.
*Loading the "loading chamber" is very easy.
*The leather is of high quality and is soft leather. It does not look cheap.
CONS:
*The wallet, without contents, is already thick. If you load it with your essentials, the
wallet will be THICKER. I loaded the Real Man's Wallet with my driver's license, my health insurance
card, car insurance card, 1 credit card, 2 business cards, a few bills and my Extreme Burn gimmick,
and the wallet looks very thick like a cheeseburger. I wanted to load it more but I couldn't fold it
and close it well.
I feel bad that I can't use it as my everyday wallet because it is very
well made. I guess I better stick to my JOL Wallet. The JOL wallets come thin outside the box and
when you load it with your essential, they expand to just the right thickness.
If you, on the
other hand don't mind a huge "bulge" in your pocket then definitely get this wallet.

First of all, I've bought so many wallets. They're all so big, or you use the wallet for magic, and
you have a separate wallet that you use for your money and cards. This wallet is small, and you can
use it as your every day wallet. It cheap compared to other wallets too. When you get the wallet,
you'll have to be creative with the method because the given instructions might not fit your style.
But when a spectators card appears behind your drivers license in a compartment that is buttoned,
they freak out. I use it all the time, if you're going to buy a wallet, get this one. I'm not sure
why penguin doesn't advertise this wallet more, it's absolutely beautiful.

Been doing the Card to wallet for years...most wallets are really cheap looking/feeling due to their
mass production. This wallet is made VERY well. It's real leather, and it's actually THICK
leather...so it should last a very long time! WELL worth the price!

I've used a lot of wallets, and they were just too big. The best thing about this one is that it is
exactly like the wallets I normally use.
Some people say that it is difficult to load, but I
assure you that, if done properly, it will take you no more than three seconds to load.
Definitely, this is THE wallet.

Good wallet for a signed card or a prediction.
I use it as a normal wallet but you can't put
money in it.

Before reviewing this product, I wanted a chance to work with it for a little while to see if "Card
to Wallet" was a routine that I was interested in adding to my repertoire. After working with this
wallet for a couple of weeks, I find the wallet is relatively easy to work with. If you are
inexperienced with the palming of cards of cards as I was, I suggest the "Gamblers Cop". It's
relatively simple and ideal for this particular wallet, since you're loading to the hip pocket.
Additionally, the angles are not bad unless someone is directly behind you. Other than that,
generating the misdirection, or logic for going to the back pocket is relatively simple. The wallet
itself is quite nice as advertised. It is a real leather working wallet for the every day working
class regular guy. I have no issues with keeping a fair amount of cash in the wallet, as well as two
credit cards and my driver license. So, those are no hindrance to loading the card to the wallet. It
does take some practice to load smoothly and quickly, but good patter helps and most laymen aren't
expecting you to pull their card from the wallet. So, just relax and work the routine and enjoy the
results. I hope my review was helpful.

I absolutely love this wallet! This is the perfect Card to Wallet because it looks like any other
everyday wallet and is very affordable, especially at penguin magic. The easy to read instructions
will help you through it, as well as give a couple of routines you can use. I highly recommend this
to anyone with an Ambitious Card routine or is into card magic. :D

this wallet does everything the description claims it can. it looks and functions as an everyday
wallet and is designed in such a way that makes it painfully simple to load a card into. the look is
both visually pleasing in its simplicity and sturdy in its craftsmanship. i have not used any other
wallet, so i am unable to compare this with similar products. however, after a few days of research
in various forums i came to the conclusion that this wallet was the one i was looking for. over all,
i am quite satisfied with my purchase.

The best value for card to wallet and/or prediction. Durable and best used for everyday. I have yet
to meet anybody that owns it, that doesn't like it. I've had mine for over 2 years and have gotten
drenched in the rain on my motorcycle several times and it's still holding up. I wouldn't hesitate
to buy another or multiple. You have to palm a card, but where it ends up looks impossible.
