I have now had the full workings of Bionik shown to me by Dave at the WMS stand in Blackpool.
He revealed all the gimmickry involved. I think there's a lot of faffing about for a simple bend. I have coinvexed and I like it. This is nothing like coinvexed. Bionik also relies on you wearing certain clothes to act as a 'host' for one of the gimmicks. I don't think this will capture the same interest as coinvexed did. Let's see if others agree.

I like the premise of this but have the same thoughts concerning clothing limitations. Does this require that you wear a jacket?

No you don't have to wear a jacket..but there would be more cover if you did. Technically there is a clothing requirement but it is something that 99% of us wear every day.
A good effect no doubt, but an expensive one. I bought one as part of a very good deal inclusing coinvexed, liquid forks etc. I bought it to sell really making the other stuff I wanted very cheap! |

You can do a knife bend easily with Guy Bavli's Perfect Key Bending gimmick. I never used the gimmick to do a key because people generally don't want their keys bent, but you can borrow a knife at any restaurant. First performed this back around 2002/3.
No need for special clothes, works with most knives (I never had an issue but just in case one of you try it and it doesn't work I won't say works with all knives), gimmick is easily set up (about 2 seconds if that), work it anywhere, and it costs less than $35USD new!!! To me it's a no brainer.

Ok guy bavli keybend can be a clever solution for knife bending.
just a single gimmick and no need for misdirection. I have thought to the same thing and tried it with good results. |

Roslyn and Markhitton: Thank you for suggesting a tried-n-tested method for knife bend using Guy Bavli's Perfect Key Bending gimmick. I will give it a try.

Why spend over £80 when something that's less than £25 does the job better?

Markhitton suggested (through PM) a minor modification to Bavli's Bending gimmick so as to eliminate any metal to metal contact sound created while inserting/ removing the blade of the knife. It's a nice useful modification. Markhitton, Thank you for sharing you idea. ![]() Isn't the Café a great place - Magicians helping Magicians! ![]() ![]()

The creator of the effect has been silent - would be interesting to hear his take

Saw it also at blackpool, too much set up for a knife bent, I will still prefer misdirection and a table!
