Hi guys,
I will try to make the review of this little gem. I apologize in advance for my bad english. Name: Triple Threat Wallet Price: $65 Dealer: RFA PRDUCTIONS Difficulty: Intermediate to Advanced The effect: The name says it all! It is indeed a TRIPLE threat! Card to wallet is a classic effect. But all the messy palming and stuff… I don’t know… And sometimes I perform for more than one person… And sometimes I like to do some mentalism effects that will just FRY people… So I guess I better get my special pants… NO, not THOSE special pants… Well NO MORE! That’s right! We bring you FREEDOM! One wallet to rule them all!!! The Triple Threat will Enable you to have one or two SIGNED selected cards go to DIFFERENT SEALED parts of the wallet… WITH NO PALMING! The Wallet: It's a really good leather wallet. Very well made. It has 4 credit card slots, that you can easily put 2 cards in each slot, so you can carry up to 8 cards ( I have six right now ). It has place for money (you don't need to fold your notes). On the insert ( Mullica Insert ) you can put more credit card if you want, or like I did, just put your business cards. The Mullica Insert has a little different kind of load that you have on your original Mullica Wallet ( I will talk more about this...). Just one thing that I think Anthony Miller could put here: a little place to put coins (this wallet does not have...) It is small enough to put it in your back pocket. ( You can see the correct dimension on the RFA Productions site. ) The Instructions: It is a little black and white booklet with 8 pages. It explains the basic handling , very clear, for the signed cards to different sealed compartments (it has some drawings to help). It explains very briefly some mentalism applications such as peek, and pocket writing. The last thing on the booklet is a sample routine using the peek function of the wallet. So, I think that Anthony could put more Routine Ideas on the booklet...but your imagination will solve this . - The handling for the signed card to the insert: I really like the way the sealed compartment is. (You need to unbutton it on the top). The insert is very little if compared with the original Mullica Wallet, and THAT'S GREAT! But the way the booklet explains to load the card in the insert is not so clean in MY OPINION. And if you do the way it explains, you will need to be careful with angle. But this WAS ALREADY SOLVED. I first think it was solved by me, but independently and BEFORE I thought on this handling, the Member of the "Owners of TTW Forum" Ran Pink got a great (and very similar to mine...) handling to load the card on the insert. ( So, if you get this wallet, go to the Owners Forum and take a look at it, it has a great video made by Ran Pink {Thanks Ran! }). - The Handling for the signed card to the main wallet: It is a very easy No Palm card to wallet. You make the load in less than a second. So there is nothing to add here. You pick the wallet and it's done. - The load: You will easily load to cards on the wallet, and you can just "throw" your wallet on the table without any fear(because the cards will be greatly secure ). So, you can load the cards, put your wallet "away" do another routine... and after that you can produce the 2 signed cards from the two different compartments. - The peek function: Nothing new here, just a great peek wallet function using the insert. So you can make a peek, and show your wallet all the way around because there is nothing to see. - Pocket Writing function: Use the wallet to make predictions with a very easy load (like I said). The Dealer: I get my wallet in just a week. I made my order and 5 days after this Anthony sent it to me by Fedex International Priority ( 2 days to delivery ). Everything went ok. Final Thoughts: The routines you can make with this wallet are endless. Let me say this again: The routines you can make with this wallet are ENDLESS!!! Your imagination will make this wallet not a "little gem" like I already said, but it will be your BIG TREASURE. I'm a wallet junkie, and I have some wallets, but this will be my every day wallet. Instructions Booklet: 6/10 Workmanship: 10/10 Possibilities: 10/10 Reactions: 10/10 Quality: 10/10 Design: 9/10 (just because it does not have the place for coins... ) Size:10/10 Overall: 9.2 I highly recommend this! I hope this help you guys, all the best, Mesquita

Great review!! I'm waiting for mine to arrive and I'm looking forward to it. This will be my very first card to wallet I've ever bought or used. So it looks like I picked a winner.

Hi guys, with Mr. Miller authorization I published my routine for the TTW called Misterio. This you can download for free in a link given in the private forum for TTW users. I sent a few weeks ago a copy to Magic Chris and Arty. Hope you like it.
Regards, Pablo Valdés

Does anyone know how to get in contact with RFA productions?
I have tried editor@rfaproductions.com and bottlewasher@rfaproductions.com and neither are responding. Are they away at the moment? If so I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me of any other contact email addresses they may have. Many thanks B James |

I wish the Credit Card slots were a little wider. The snap button makes it harder to remove the bills, especially when your in a hurry to buy something.
Cannot really say if this is a great Wallet because it's only my second wallet. The first one that I have, has softer leather, and craftmenship is much better than the TTW. This wallet is better designed for typical wallet and not a magic Wallet. The loading for this wallet is very badly designed. When loading this wallet it's best to use the palmimg. When you un-zipper the wallet and look inside at the loaded card, you will see that the Load area is half-way inside the zipper pouch, so it makes pulling the card out really difficult. Folding the card, then loading the card works best for this wallet. The TTW is a lot easier to load and pull-out the card, plus it has the peek. I don't know the brand name of my first wallet, brought it at the local magic shop without instructions. Just wish the TTW had better craftmenship like my first wallet. I need help with loading the card cleanly. Need to see those examples. When I do this in private, it just feels obvious that I am doing something un-natual. Have not done this in public yet. Still want to get some practice and see some examples. Thanks Keith |

I've posted what I believe is a more natural no palm load of the inner wallet in which you open it bookwise using a buckle method to load the card. It's onthe secretinfo website.

I have had my ttw for some time now. I have been using it in the "Real World" working it through the holiday party season. I do several card to imposible locations, and now I have this power tool in my bag of tricks!
I think the craftmanship is splendid. This is a wallet you can pull out in an affluent crowd, and not be embarrassed. The look and feel of this wallet is great. The functions are endless. I do a named card routine, if I do not have a sharpi. I have found that the using the peek function, for a drawing duplication, is a great way to get business cards, and hand out yours as well. If you are doing any type of corporate, walkaround, or close up magic, the Triple Threat Wallet is a fantastic tool. I have found that when in a tight situation, when there are people all around me, I prefer to do a mercury fold before I load the card. This makes it angle proof. Best Arthur |

I just noticed Keith's post and wondered what wallet he has. It's not the Triple T, because he mentions a zipper. There's no zipper on the Triple T.
