A "virtually undectable" gaff that really is! Report this review

Whenever I see a gaff advertised as "virtually undectable" I cringe, having experienced too many that were far from it (Captain & Coke anybody?)But I was thrilled to see the quality machining that went into this piece.

While I'd probably classify this as more of a puzzle than a magic trick in the traditional sense, it is indeed worth every penny.

I like that it's compact for walk-around. I like that you can switch out the match box for a local one. I love the sound the box makes when you drop it on the table or plate. This is just a quality effect.

Finally, I wanted to address one part of the demo where he covers the box with his hand before dropping it for the reveal. This is entirely unnecessary and attracts needless suspicion that you palmed the metal, which isn't even close to true.

An all-around "outside of the box" effect. Good work!
