I have enjoyed Gregory Wilson performing the Silveware Swindle. I really love this effect.

Is this effect already available?

I see online that it's part of his current lecture. I too would love to know more, especially when the notes will be available since he may not come around here

Any news on this?

I did a quick google search and this was the only page I found with any info.

I have seen it in lecture. It requires a gimmick that I believe he is planning to release but has not released yet

Is this the ring stretching gimmick?

I saw Greg's lecture at IMX this year.

The ring stretcher is called Bandwidth, this is insanely great and unbelievably visual. Greg said he was working on a new version of the gimmick prior to release.

The Silveware Swindle is asking people to guess which is a knife, fork, or spoon hidden in your hands. This is very clever, and also requires a gimmick, but I do not know if Greg was going to release that one.

He sells a few of the ring stretchers at his lecture but they are hand made and he is charging 40 bucks. He says he is trying to have it made commercially so that it works with gold and silver rings. I think you are much more likely to get a gold wedding band when you borrow a ring

In the penguin lecture Greg mentioned that it the silverware swindle wouldn't be released this year. I think my memory serves me correctly. It's monte for the dining table.

A reliable source has told me Greg will release both Silverware Swindle and his Rubik's Cube routine... sometime in the future.

I was really annoyed that the Silverware Swindle isn't available. Why put it in a lecture if it's not even a usable principle for anything else? Dead gummit!

I believe Greg is ut of the U.S. on a lecture tour and featuring these products. Hopefully they'll be available in the U.S. soon.

Oh, so he's selling the gimmick(s) on his lectures?

I saw a video demo of his upcoming Israel lecture where he was showing the cube, but I'm not sure what he's actually offering. Anyone know Greg that can write him?

He said this was not in production. Looks like a challenging item to make. Maybe he needs some encouragement?

Yeah, I really hope this will be available soon. I would pay a pretty penny for it too... Probably would have to as they don't seem cheap to manufacture. Smile

The thing is that this would be so extremely great for table hopping. It would play really well for larger tables because it's so visual. Sometimes I get the feeling that the impact of a "regular" effect is, to some degree, lost on people on the other end of the table. A card to wallet for example - it's a completely different thing to pull the actual card out of the wallet or sitting next to to person doing it than being three feet away. Don't get me wrong, it's impressive to them too, just not the "umpf! gutshot!"-feeling.

The Silverware Swindle would play equally big for the whole table AND really hit them ALL between the eyes! It's that good!

*** you Gregory for having it in your lecture! Why? WHY?!?!
