My Favourite Go-To Deck Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 12th, 2024
I really enjoy using these as my daily carry decks. They handle as well as any Rider Back, have that "familiar" feel, and when I decide to use my Penguin Marked decks no one, no matter how sharp, notices the back difference.

Some will say they are cut differently, and can't faro well...they can always just turn them over...besides, faros are not really mandatory for many sleights. (Yes, I faro cards quite readily).

Although there are not many gaff cards specifically for Maiden Backs, you can use double facers and double blanks from normal Bike stock of course. Blank face and double backs from Penguin Marked decks blend seamlessly too. As far as short cards and strippers go, the affordability of these cards ensures I will not go bankrupt when I convert a few by myself.

All in all, these will be my favourites for al long, long time.
