Effect
The performer hands out a brass bodied padlock, familiar to just about everybody, and four keys. From this moment, the performer does not touch the lock or keys. He asks the spectator to find the only key that will open the lock. All four keys are tried, but none of them will open the lock. The performers then says, "That's because I've got the only key that works." He then gives the spectator this fifth key and it opens the lock. The open lock is then locked onto the spectator's finger ring, jacket buttonhole, etc. and the keys are mixed up. The performer then says that he will use his powers to try to influence the selection of the correct key. The spectator chooses a key, and this is discarded. He chooses three more, which are also discarded, leaving just one. He tries this key and the lock opens! Features • Performer NEVER touches the lock or keys during performance • ALL the keys are different • Lock is a large 60mm padlock, which opens with a "clunk" • NO false moves at all (after all, the spectator has the lock!) • Precision internal mechanism ... resets in one second! I recieved this this morning direct from Wayne Dobson after hearing his praise I am very very happy with the quality of the lock and the special something which makes it all possible. It really does 'do exactly what is says on the tin' the strength of the effect will depend soley on the presentation there is nothing to worry about with the props. I am a huge fan of my Murphy's chest effect however this is far better suited to my table hopping set as near to perfect as you can get. as if you couldn't have guessed I am very very happy today with this arrival now for the price £130 I guess about $200 a lot of cash and in a way I am happy that some will say 'thats way to high' for the fewer people that own this the better lol as for the service from Mr Dobson - the same as the effect!!! you can find this on the website http://www.waynedobson.co.uk take a look at the dtrik range!!! regards Ash |

I had this effect from a UK locksmith ... give me time to re-collect, and I will be back to you on this one.

This was an effect created by a master locksmith in the UK.
It was called "Wonder Lock" and was available direct from the locksmith himself. However, this is now sold through magic suppliers. Forgive me, I can't remember the locksmith's name. Routine: example: 5x£20 notes (or whatever) are placed within a clear plastic sleeve, which is secured by a solid brass lock, held by the assistant in full view. A single key is shown to unlock the holder. This key is placed inside a glass, and mixed with other keys. Whoever has the key to open the lock keeps the £100. The assistant holds the locked item in plain view whilst every spectator tries their key. However, it is at the performers discretion when the lock opens - ie 2nd attempt, last attempt. A real worker for the stage performer - an act in itself. Nothing to go wrong ... lots of potential. Packs small, plays big. Everything can be examined PM me for any questions. |

Caigy ...
thanks for the heads-up, I will look into these locks. |

SupaLok ...
Not being critical, but I am thinking if it is always the last key, then I favour the Wonder Lock as it offers more presentation value as the performer has control when the lock opens. ... eg. at any time the spectator can change keys with the performer. The spectator can choose to try the lock ... exchange keys with the performer and try the lock ... or have the performer try the lock. The performer always gets the correct key at any time during the performance. |

I realize this is an old thread, but did some research on the SupaLok, as I intend to add it to my set. I was not totally satisfied with my routine and want give a BIG SHOUT OUT to saysold1 for your book recommendation (https://www.stevensmagic.com/shop/locked-jim-kleefeld-book/)! Excellent book! It got my creative juices flowing and have since developed a nice routine. THANK YOU!
