Re: Help on vintage magic props

Yes Rob, it's out of stock. I have been looking for this prop for over a year. I ordered one from Harry Allen during the 2013 SAM National Convention in Washington DC. I made an advance payment during our meeting. He was supposed to bring it at the 2013 IBM Convention in Phoenix. But when we met aga...

Re: Help on vintage magic props

Samurai sword is such a wonderful effect. And how amazingly simple is the 'secret', it just lets you smile! This is a true story-telling effect. And, you can use any ring from any spectator! But it lacks the sword, like David said. And the rods of course. But you DO have the essential thing obtaine...

Re: Help on vintage magic props

Thank you Simon but I know where to get sword and rods; however, here is a video of another Samurai that I would like to have.

Re: Help on vintage magic props

Thank you David and vsuperanto!

I don't have the items yet. The pictures were just sent to me. You both right, it is the Samurai Sword. The spoon and fork confused me. I thought they was part of the trick.

Re: MAGIC WAGON

I've received it this morning. The dice and the trident are very well made. I like the effect but I don't think it's worth $140. For what you get it's worth $50-$60 not more than that. I paid $140 for a regular drinking glass (not a small vial as I was imagining) dice, a base and a trident. I have ...

Re: Queen's Escape by Ton Onosaka

This is a new version of an old effect found in several magic sets made during the seventies. In the older version, you cannot show both sides of the tube before the penetration. The added effect uses the String thru Neck technique. The use of the ring makes the penetration easier and faster. Anothe...

Re: Fake Tenyo Elite?

For this trick to work you need to put the green ball first. Or you can replace the green ball with a sponge ball to jumbo sponge ball from the Tenyo sponge ball set.

Crystal Cleaver question

Does anybody know how to perform Crystal Cleaver repeatedly? In the Hot Tips section of the Tenyo Magic Official Site there is an explanation of how to do it. The first illustration is blank on my computer and I cannot do it by following the instructions provided.
