Switchblade
Harlan, Dan
(Based on 2 reviews)
Switchblade is a precision-made mechanical device that looks like an ordinary card but this clever gimmick is extraordinary! This modern tool eliminates difficult sleight-of-hand allowing you to perform impossible card magic.
Change one card into another, make the back visually change color, perform an incredible 3 Card Monte, vanish a selected card from your hand and it reappears in the deck held by the spectator... an more! In the included video instructions, Dan Harlan personally performs and teaches you how to use your Switchblade gimmick to do all of this without the hard work.
And the best part is Switchblade is so versatile and fun to use that you'll be coming up with your own routines in no time. Previously only available to a select few, Harlan has finally made his ingenious gimmick available to YOU so that you can experience the thrill of Switchblade!

I take things very carefully while adding stuff to my wishlist, trying to get only the best for the kind of magic I do. (30 yrs doing close-up) This is a winner. Dan put real thought into this and the secret gimmick is smart and well-made.
His DVD is also well-done and features several handlings from one that takes about 30 seconds to a more involved "ghost card" routine with several high points. (Stay tuned; Dan put in performances to a large table and a smaller table to give you the idea.) Also, there's some more magic - unexplained - that will blow your mind as it did the audience outside a bar.
Bottom line: It's a good well-made prop. You'll find bunches of other uses for it in your own routines. Good one, Dan!

I'm a fan of Dan Harlan's magic and I love the idea behind this very visual and "to the point" type of effect.
The effect comes in a slim DVD case. You get the gimmick (VERY well made and easy to use), an extra card and a pretty good DVD. It isn't HD or anything but the quality is very good and there are many GREAT routines on it. Dan is a good instructor and takes you step by step through every move (even though there aren't really ANY moves).
Great product, great effects, very visual and certain to get great reactions. What more could you ask for?
