I sadly have to say, some statements about this product arent true. Therefore, and for the handling
itself just 3 stars. Let me be clear:
Its a good idea and you are a little bit cleaner than
with a normal swami. But if you like the handling, really depends on youre type of personality and
performence style. I wouldnt wonder my self, if some people still prefer to stay with the good old
nailwriter after seing this.
These statements are not fully true: ,,You never stick
anything onto your finger or hide anything in your hands". The truth: You actually have to hide
something in youre hands.
,,..Forget your worries. Focus on your performance."
You have
to learn the handling, like you have to learn to write with a Thumptip or Swami. After practice, you
can focus on youre performence, like with Swami ect.
For me personally, I will stay with
the Nailwriter. It is just less handling with the swami. Heres to much going on for my style.

This is, to put it simply, just a modified swami/nail writer. All it does is allow you to not have
to have the thing on the thumb. It is not nearly as different as you would hope for. That being
said, the idea is VERY nice in that you are free to just remove an envelope and have the prediction
in there. Or use the black case which allows you to show both sides of the envelope containing the
prediction. I found this method makes the gimmick "pop out" more but with a little audience
management it should do fine. You can even use just your wallet and a business card as described but
that can be a bit finicky. My favorite method is with the post it pad. If done right, it can look
totally clean.
So my thoughts on this are: It's great but still heavily gimmicked. You can
not show both sides of the envelope unless you use the little black box. I kind of wanted a method
that I can show both sides of the prediction envelope without having it in anything else used for
switching. But this is a great effect and the routines presented are pure direct mind reading. I
just can not give it five stars.

Hey u ... Don't get this , I want to be the only one in my town who can perform predictions this
clean , and this easy.
Seriously , this is the best swammi I've ever seen . Your hands can
literally be shown to have NOTHING during the entire performance , and you truly have nothing in
your hands . The gimmick is hidden in a place where no one will ever notice .
Now , ignore
those reviews which says the envelope can be a problem as it cannot be shown on both sides . Hey ,
you are doing a prediction and the words are written on the paper ( which can be examined ) , I've
performed this yesterday at a paid show and received great reactions . ( I chose to situation myself
near windows so no one sees the back of me ) , and I have never had one guy asking to check the
envelope . And , even if they do ask , I can easily hand do a switch and hand out a normal envelope
( easy method taught on the download ) .
What you receive , is totally worth every single
cent . You receive so many things that if treated carefully , will last you a life time ( maybe you
will need to replace those leads once you ran out , but leads can be purchase at basically anywhere
) . I'm puzzled why they don't include a DVD since the package is big enough to hold a DVD in , but
that been said , I think they are just trying to save the world ... Which , is fine for me .
I love this , I will definitely be adding this to my walk around act to replace my current
swammi . It's so good , so simple , so clean , and so powerful . Don't get it , I don't want anyone
else performing this :) For those who are concerned , the gimmick will NEVER fall off if you handle
it correctly , that is , bend the envelope or post it a little , that's all you need to do to keep
the gimmick 100% of the time in place ( for those who has the gimmick will know what I'm talking
about ) .
Just joking ... Order this now , you will not be disappointed .

Wow. I never write reviews, but I just had to write one for this incredibly amazing, updated classic
tool of mentalism! After learning the secret and without any practice, I performed it at work for
the first time. I did the basic/simple performance of bringing the small black envelope from out of
my front shirt pocket. I asked the spectator to think of a long lost friend/person in their past.
After freely displaying the envelope, I had the spectator pull out the business card prediction.
They look of astonishment (and possibly a little fear) on the spectator's face was priceless after
reading my prediction that they would think of their freely thought of person at that exact specific
time! Very easy to do. Self contained.Customizable and adaptable to your routines. Only purchase if
you want people to think you can foresee future events or read someone's mind in the future. This
product gives you true freedom in your mentalism/prediction routines. It truly is a "Freedom
Writer".

I have always loved the effects that can be done with a swami or nail writer, but never felt
comfortable using one. The "sticky" ones never stuck to my skin well enough, and I refused to grow
my thumbnail out to use a nail writer. The Freedom Writer solves all of these issues.
This
is something that I will be carrying and using every day. It's one of those gimmicks that I wish no
one else knew about. I'm happy that it's priced enough to weed out the "curious."
Two
thumbs up!!!

Everything about this product is great! It comes with everything you need plus A LOT more! They have
provided more for this effect than needed. I am a huge fan of anything taught by Bro Gilbert! He is
just a phenomenal teacher! I highly recommend this if you use a swami and wish your hands were
clean. I will definitely be using this for walk around.

Just received the product and i didn't like it, it could work but there are much better products out
there that could be used. I don't advise anybody purchasing it, not a good method and very expensive
for this kind of gimmick.

The Freedom Writer I received that makes it impossible to replenish a part of the gimmick that
depletes over time. One star, for now; subject to adjustment upward with a replacement, and
assuming this isn't a common problem.
I really really like this trick. The video teaches so many great was to perform it. It is really fun
to perform. I can't really compare this to other secret writers as this is my first (i have not
gotten swami gimmicks, super sharpie, boon writer anything like those before). It will take a short
while to get use to the writing but after that, you will have a great time. The gimmick will also
last a long time.
