From the creative mind of Nicholas Lawrence comes Blade: a classic stage illusion turned close-up!

An homage to the famous Sawing a Woman in Half illusion, Blade allows you to mysteriously split an ordinary card into two separate moving pieces right in front of your spectator's eyes! After the card is split, you effortlessly fuse the pieces back together without any additional cover. The best part? You can immediately hand everything out for examination!

- Blade arrives ready to perform right out of the box.
- Each gimmick is handmade by Nicholas Lawrence and the Abstract Effects team.
- Immediately hand everything out for examination.
- Each package comes with a fully built gimmick as well as additional materials for customization.

Ok. Let me be really honest here. This is the worst thing you could do for a real audience. The gimmick is so so so cheap they could have at least supplied you with the business card gimmick as well. It is very bad and can very easily fail you. The odds of you flashing are really really higher, and I haven't even got to the worst part yet! Let's assume that the gimmick does work, you don't flash ( which seems almost impossible because you need to line everything up perfectly, and the only way to do so is with really weird moves) and some how you managed to end clean. Any person with half a brain can kind of understand you are hiding something, and wether they understand it is a gimmick or think you are pal in a card some how at that point the entire routine is completely ruined. But wait. There is more. The video is so so so bad. You can barely hear him, he rushes through the explanation, and doesn't explain well enough. You think im done? No! Let me tell you one last thing. It is not that powerful anyway. Let's say you are a good and manage to do everything right. The payoff isn't very good. The cutting of the card happens way to fast, the restoration too and you need to turn you arm a few times to get everything done. Ok. Now I am finished. If after reading this you are going to buy this and use it you must be really really stupid or really really want to perform it. All I can say now is go buy something else which you will perform and can carry around with you. I would recommend will to read or changeling odo. Great great great effects that git perfectly in to you wallet.

It's a poor gimmick, and a poor idea, it doesn't work perfectly, and most of the times it fails.and it definitely expensive for what you'll get , think 15$ is enough.

Great! But? Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 18th, 2019
This is the best tricks I have purchased this year so far, but the gimmick can be made better with less friction, you’ll know what I mean once you are handling it. I made it a different way where there is less friction. It would’ve gotten a 5-star review but the video quality of the instructions is terrible.

Brilliant Report this review

I did not purchase from Penguin but needed to leave this review. This version (close up) of the mismade lady is beyond brilliant. No more plastic cases. Just 3 cards and your good to go. How are the angles? No good surrounded but for a few spectators in the front. Devilishly clever Nick.

Two Stars for creativity, but the whole thing is very impractical. Like others have mentioned, the thing doesn’t slide very well and will probably flash on you.

I've purchased a lot of Nicholas'effects over the years and this is by far the most ingenious. I love the fact that it's convertible to playing cards, business cards and credit cards as well. Get this ASAP!
