Very nice, my method of peeking for the Shadow is two blank business cards in the plastic window, I remove one for a spectator to draw a picture put it into Shadow on top of my Bank card!! then while removing the second card (which I use Acidus Novus your first kiss etc) I get a peek of the drawing, put my wallet away or face down on the spectator's hand then after revealing the name of the first kiss, I use the back of that card to draw the thought of drawing. So no going back to the Shadow. Will to read is always in my wallet. You can remove the index from the Shadow Wallet (it is only glued in) then put it into any wallet very easy to slide back into the Shadow when required.
Very interesting review as always! As far as "peek wallet" I totally agree with you: I bought the Shadow wallet because it is an improvement of the Razor one (also to carry bullets and effects easierly), but I still use the Razor as a business card holder "with special bonus function" (the peek). Thanks again.
You have to be the greatest and nicest review person on the web!!!! Thank you so much for all you give to us! If you had a shirt to buy I would buy it!!!
Awesome Video David! Thank you for putting out amazing content! I love these top 5 lists! Thanks for sending me your Shadow Peek! I will definitely be trying it out!
Outstanding list, Doc. Here are my top five: Positive Increases (version of Max Maven's Positive-Negative) by Scott Guinn, Mental Yarn by Bill Goldman, Outlook by Ken Dyne and Dave Cook, Between the Lines by Michael Murray, and Mental Bending from Matt Mello's book State of Mind. I just got Trident by Scott Creasy, and while I haven't performed it yet, it's great, and it's going to be part of one of my wallet routines. My notable mentions: Classified by Raghava Krishna and Organic Choice by Ryan Stock.
Awesome list Chris and thanks for sharing with us!! Trident is an excellent mental routine just using 3 index cards and in typic Creasey fashion he has mixed and matched multiple principles of mentalism to come up with this clever routine for 3 sitters. It is excellent as a show piece or for a parlor setting. Lots of moments of impact built in.
Hi Chris, I bought "Positive Increases" because of your recommendation but reading the manuscript what I don't get is, how is the last outcome (spectator chooses heads up) an out at all? You're simply telling your spectator, that he is "new at this and didn't had practice" and it's "understandable that he is wrong". That's pretty weak for an out or am I missing something here? The first past how to get to the right coin and the preferred orientation is gold, no doubt but the rest...
Yet another excellent review - many thanks! And thank you too for emailing me your setup and ideas on the Shadow Peek. They are definitely worth following up 🙂
Thank you for the email and information regarding Boudreau's number divination effect. This kind of information, where you take one tool and give people ideas on how to combine it with other tools for minimal space and maximum effect is gold. Greatly appreciate your channel and work.
I find myself watching these wallet reviews like there's gonna be a Jessica Alba strip show at the end of it, lol. I'm so indecisive that I haven't even bought one yet and I'm still just sliding a card into my money clip. I've got no need for a peek but still find these interesting
Thanks so much for your reviews David!!!! They are extremely helpful because magic is such a rabbit hole. I got Thought list a few days ago and I must say its an amazing effect!!! I love the way you use the Shadow wallet! Your reviews and suggestions are so distilled - it saves the most precious commodity in the world - TIME! Awesome stuff!
Thanks for the great review! It really helped me to decide purchasing the Shadow Wallet. And thanks so much also for your peek video, you came up with some great details to make the peek look way more deceiving and justified. Keep up the fantastic work!🙂
I have gotten perfected publicity and thought list... Incorporated thought list to my inject routine... I may email you later coz a part in perfected publicity is confusing / printing error I think.... But the principle behind Perfected publicity is soo good 👌
Always interesting to listen to your Tubes. I discovered you only recently, but already I wouldn't dream of making a purchase without first seeing if you'd reviewed the product. Which isn't to say that I always *agree* with you, but I do know I'll get extra, important, info on your channel and that your opinion will be 100% genuine. Well done. you.
Long awaited review David and it was really worth it as usual really great information and substantiation … it’s always amazing in which depth your reviews go and how much context you give, really appreciate that … Seems Mike Oldfield had a premonition as he published „Shadow on the wall(et)“
Excellent lineup as usual! Fair descriptions without giving away too much. I thought that Depiction was a gem, so when I saw it was an honorable mention, I knew this list would be another treasure trove! You seem so tapped in to the latest under-the-radar mentalism hits, how do you stay so well informed on these releases? Regarding wallets, have you tried the Minimal Wallet by Pablo Amira and Alan Wong?
Thanks! I stay informed because I buy magic almost everyday! Yup - I have seen the advertisement for Pablo Amira's Minimal Wallet - It doesn't appear to offer anything more/better than many other peek wallets I already have that also have the SUC feature like the Stealth Assassin Wallet/Viper Wallet/ etc. etc.
I will definitely be looking into all of these effects! I was just curious on your presentation for "a number divination" like, what do you say when you bring out the card and perform the effect? thanks (:
I used to use the presentational idea that is part of the effect how you introduce the concept that you are good with numbers and how you could know what number a person was concentrating on if you knew if it was odd or even and how you have put that peculiar task to work in picking lottery numbers. Nowadays I just present it as sometimes I can get a better feel how a person thinks by having them concentrate on numbers because numbers are unambiguous but I have found that different people actually see numbers a little bit differently in their minds and I would like to see how they visualize a number. (This usually generates intrigue). I then just move forward with the effect.
Great review! Thank you so much for doing these incredibly informative and helpful videos! Btw. can Thought List be performed in any language? (aside from that the words would obviously have to be translated) Cheers!
Great review, I watching your magic review continuously on the last 3 days , it really help me a lot, thank you for your effort. Just wonder what do you think if "Thought List" and "Perfected Publicity " still work if i translate them to Chinese ?
Greetings! Thought list will work fine. I have actually made my own improvements to that effect. I am not sure if you can translate Perfected Publicity to Chinese.
Oh, in another vid you mentioned selling your hard copy of Which Hand by Timon Krause. Did you sell that to a friend that still has it? If so, and if he's interested in parting with it, I'll pay whatever the going rate is assuming it didn't become a collectors thing and now costs hundreds of bucks. Edit: I think there were only 500 made so it might be out of my price range... I just can't find any selling to even try to guess at what it's going to cost to corral one
@@UnbiasedMagicReviews thanks man! If you ever see one pop up and happen to remember this comment, hit me up and I'll buy you something to review as a finders fee !
@@mattym4451 I appreciate the gesture but I have way too much to review already - Just sub and enjoy the reviews. That's thanks enough. I will keep you in mind!
Dear, i would love to know your handeling for doing the peek with the shadow wallet. Do you have a email i can send my request to? Kind regards and love the video!
lol that's funny i have the viper Wallet and I think its actually have a terrible peak wallet its really depends on the user preference, I brought the shadow and Orphic and there is a chance for the stealth but ill think ill pass on the Stealth assassin wallet. to much wallets. but thanks for the review.
It completely depends on what you want to do with it. Have you seen my Viperous peek?? You can't peek a folded card like that with any other wallet on the market.
I like your reviews and I am watching many of them. I find then unbiased and informing. But ... My personal opinion: all "mentalist" should switch to "mental magic". The moment you ask someone to write something on a piece of paper and you put that very piece of paper in your wallet "for safe keeping" kills whatever you are trying to do (read someone's mind for example). Same for people who do "mentalism" using a phone. C'mon! Who really believes that??? When you ask them "Think of a number on this card", everyone should think "Why can't I think of any bloody numba i want?" Isn't it better to make it clear from the start you are using tricks? I am mainly a card guy. And I make it clear I am not reading any minds nor I am transforming any card into another one. That's why most of my routines are centred around the spectator(s) and not around me. I don't like those magicians that go on and on saying "I, me, I, me ...". IT'S NOT ABOUT US! Any thoughts?
If you’ve bought shadow wallet it would be worth checking out David’s setup for the peek. It’s deceptive & genius. Just email him & he will send you the link. Cheers

Hi, Do you still use the Shadow Wallet as your edc ? and do you have the Orphic Wallet ?
Yup - I still use the Shadow Wallet occasionally as well as a few other wallets. I do not own the orphic wallet.
Is the effect "Thought List" by Maurice Janssen language dependent? Can it be performed in German language?
It is not language dependent. Can be performed in any language.
