I haven't found any reviews on this one.
Does anyone have this ? Is it any good ? Angle proof etc. Steve |

My god!
It is really a bad trick. Stupid and very easy to understand in my opinion. This one socks. |

I hope it isn't something as stupid as :
The nail is already bent, but you hide the bend with your hand. Or is it ? Anyway, thanks for your opinion. Steve |

This is a waste of $$. I sold it off the next day! Don't buy it or you are going to regret it!. Spend it on Banachek's Psychokinetic Silverware instead!

Generally reviews about this item are bad. However those new to magic often say something is bad when the secret is simple. Sometime the key simply is better presentation and building up a trick. Selling it to your audience as being more that it is can turn something mundane into a miracle.
Having said all that the most effective metal benders are those who use ungimmicked props (imo). Get a good book or video (depending on your prefered format) on metal bending if you want to perform these kinds of effects. I believe Banachek's book is looked apon in a good light, but I haven't read it so I cannot give you a personal opinion. Regards, Kris Sheglova
The above is all rubbish, except that which you chose to believe

Actually, the Bavli idea is nearly identical to an earlier Alain Nu release, which is based on Fred Bauman's "Metalogic".

Crafmanship is excellent but the effect itself sucks pretty hard. Contrary to what is advertised, it can't be examined. If you let a spectator inspect it, they will figure out the method in a minute. My brother laughed at me as he revealed the gimick when I perfomed this for him. There might be some hope for this trick if you are perforing for children; however.

Whoa! I bought and perform the trick, and I ALWAYS hand out the bent nail at the end. Where are you guys coming from?
It took me some practice to get the handling down pat, but I now use it all the time. I love this effect. I reccomend it to any body who is willing to practice the moves.
The difficult must become easy, the easy beautiful and the beautiful magical.
