For the folded corner issue you can start by performing regeneration by blake then go for push

I am intrigued. Not concerned about the bent corner. I think Sultan's suggestions for how to explain it make sense. Visually, it is REALLY AWESOME!

I'll post my comments when I get it.

OK, I've had it for a few days. This is not an in-depth review, just my thoughts:

I like the method. It does look just as good in real life as in the trailer. So, if you liked the look of the trailer, you will like the look in real life.

This is not a negative, but you can't perform this with any randomly selected card. While he doesn't go into this handling idea, this is how I would present it:

Force an un-gimmicked duplicate card to the gimmick card. do some other routine where they handle the card. Switch out the un-gimmicked duplicate for the gimmick. As for the folded corner issue discussed above, I would handle it as a gag moment "Want to see your card penetrate the table?" Pretend to fold the card at the point already creased in the gimmick and pretend to push it through the table. Then, go into the routine(s) as he describes them. I suppose you could switch the gimmick back to the non-gimmicked card and you have another restoration effect, but personally I think that might be giving away a clue to the method. If you want to end clean, he discusses a method to remove the gimmick from the card and you can hand out the card. I haven't figured it out yet, but I think it would be really awesome to figure out a way to follow this up with a monte routine where their corner folded card is the money card and in the end it turns out a different card has the corner folded. maybe someone can come up with this handling. If I think of it, I'll invite anyone who owns this to PM me. I am super busy with a huge opportunity at my work, so I probably won't get around to this anytime soon.

Push – Sultan Orazaly

Product description : I think we’re all familiar with the pen through bill, or key through bill. It’s a famous trick which we’ve all seen once in our magician life. Push takes this famous plot, and Sultan has adapted it to a playing card which is very nice idea. The basic idea is simple, you take a bill, fold a corner of a card and push the card through the bill ! There is no simpler than that, you remove the card from the bill and you can directly hand it out for examination. Is this worth your hard earned money ? Let’s find out.

Price and where to buy it : This is sold at $24.95 and you can find it in nearly every Murphy's magic partner !

What you get : You get a very small cardboard sleeve with inside everything you need to prep the gimmick. You receive the link for a 10 minutes video which teaches you how to construct the gimmick and several ways of performing the trick. The video is done with subtitles, the music is quite annoying and too loud but you can just shut down the sound. You get some parts in order to make the gimmick, it should take you between 5 to 10 minutes making the gimmick, nothing really hard but you have to be precise if you want a good one. You should have all the stuff at home to make it. Overall, the price is quite low and the packaging small but the gimmick, once made, is very realistic. I’m honestly surprised by this, I think I was gonna hate it but it works and works well.

Teaser : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgtprI__EXk

The pros and the cons : Here is the core of my review, let's begin with the cons, as I will usually be doing, I prefer to keep the good things for the end.

THE CONS :
- As I said, you have to build your own gimmick. But this is also a good news because you can then make it out of the card you want.
- You have to watch your angles, it’s not something you will do surrounded.

THE PROS :
- It’s very visual, and Jordan from PCTC Productions teaches you several ways of performing the effect so you can chose which one looks the best for you.
- The gimmick is very realistic, it looks like the corner is going through the bill !
- You’re ending clean, there is no switch to do, you can hand out the card and even have it signed before the routine.
- I think it adds something to the whole “Thing through bill” plot, because you could start with a card made out of cardboard and then going with a pen or a key to show that metal can also work. You’ll have a full routine, and with a good patter, you can fry people with it.
- You can make the gimmick again once it becomes worn, out of a different design if you want.

Overall rating : I do think this is a worthy addition to the magic community, the effect is visual and you end clean. But I won’t carry it on a daily basis, 3/4 hearts

As for the difficulty level, it’s pretty easy, you should pick up the move quite quickly, 2/5 stars.

Similar products : Ignition by Magic Smith is the key through bill I’m using all the time but you also have the original pen through bill which is a good routine.
