Hey guys which do you think is better? I hear from people that the spider is very superior in terms of practicality, but then the pen quality was not as great compared to the Kevlar pen reel...... tough choice.


anyone got some directions?

I have both and love both. I'd have a hard time chosing one or the other. The main difference is the kevlar pen always has tension. The spider can be shut off for slack.

It really depends on what type of routines you want to perform.

What type of routines is one better than the other for?

I have the spider pen and sometimes the "mechanism" acts up. I turn it on and it does nothing, then I turn it back off and on again. Hopefully it works after that. Has anyone else had problems?

I use the spider pen when I am in street clothes but I always use an ITR when working...

Sorcery Manufacturing's 2005 Kevlar Pen Reel is a much better choice than the Spider Pen. It works great and doesn't have all of the problems that the Spider Pen has.

Magic w/ Hart: Try changing batteries, the Spider Pen is awesome but that does happen when the batteries are dying.
The Spider Pen works really well. I carry mine daily. I personally think that the Spider Pen is the best of it's time.
