I have a question. Sorry for my ignorance. Can you use the same wallet for the trouser back pocket and the breast pocket of your jacket? Or you have to use a different kind of wallet depending on the pocket you use?

Hello Alden. Sorry for taking so long. I have been in the hospital for a bit. But as to the Heart Attack. It is my reworking of the Hip Pocket Bombshell. It has an integral(Built in 22 card index for unfolded playing cards or business cards and or bills(paper money). Things can be loaded from the index into the loading chamber. It does anything the old Bendix Bombshell did or the predator and anything the Bombshell did. And I must admit it is quite a lovely looking wallet. Magic Box sold out there first run. They just reloaded. They are the only ones in the UK who will have it. I must admit that it allows a lot of very neat effects. including many non card effects. I keep mine loaded for K.Killer and Pocket Space+ and Grandma Money and still have empty slots and and still does a great no palm card to wallet. Well I hope that helped. Sorry I guess I ran off at the keyboard there. But I have been cooped up a bit for a while and it is nice to talk again...

Hi Warren,
I have been using the JOL line for years and I love it. I also wanted an everyday style wallet but at that time he did not make those and I discovered the Mesika Wallet, which I really like except for the just-a-bit-too-small zipper compartment. An unfolded poker size card will fit but you will damage it in wrestling it out of the zipper compartment. So, my question is this: with regards to using non-folded poker size cards, does the JOL hip wallet have this problem also, or is the card, once loaded, easy to get out of the zipper compartment without mangling it? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated! If anyone else has input or can compare the Mesika and JOL wallets in regards to this issue, feel free to chime in! |

Hi Dr_J whilst I've never owned a Mesika wallet I am familiar with it. I personally have never had any problems using a JOL in regards to removing an unfolded card from the zipper compartment.
At this moment in time I use a JOL as my every day wallet and use it regular, in fact I've just purchased a spare and I'm comtemplating purchasing JOL plus wallet too. |

Thanks Warren! I appreciate your input - I would recommend the JOL Plus wallet - it has a lot of very good features built into it and you can get quite a bit out of it.
My only caution would be to think about whether or not you want the wallet to do a lot of things. If you only want it to do Card to Wallet (inside of a zip compartment) and nothing else, consider the EZ Wallet or the No-Palm wallets. Not only are they a bit thinner overall but they are also a bit cheaper. Brian Bonsall at Propdog.co.uk makes the JOL line now and actually has videos for most of the wallets on the website (including the Hip Wallet but the video just did not answer my specific question). |

Yes Dave does a great job over at Propdog all though to be honest I personally don't agree with his video's being so open to the public I would rather him follow the suit of others such as Nick Einhorn and have those sort of revealing video's password protected.
Getting back to the subject of wallets however Dave doe's make some great products and his customer service is excellent, having contacted Dave in the past over products if you have any questions he would be only to pleased to help you. |

Hi,
does anyone out there (UK based) know where I might be able to pick up an old Roy Roth piece of work called Reverse Osmosis Outdone. If someone has one they are willing to let go please PM me. Thanks in advance, D |

Hi all, trying to decide on a wallet, is there any palm and no palm hip pocket wallet? Also, with the jol hip pocket wallet how smooth is the load because I have heard quite a few very different opinions. Lastly, again thank you warren for making this great thread!

Here's a review I left at Bob Solari Magic for the BKM Wallet:
Quote:
I own this and it's hard to believe that it can be sold at this price. The materials and build quality are absolutely top shelf. It actually has an ID slot with acetate "window" - so many wallets don't and I always thought it made them look fake. Plenty of credit card slots in which cards fit well: snug but not too tight. The Balducci/Kaps load works well and uses a credit card as a guide. The load chamber is big, so one could (with a little arts 'n crafts work) rig up a pay envelope to receive the card - Bingo! LePaul Wallet! The zipper is smooth and snag-free. The Mullica side is a checkbook cover and has a "locking" mechanism to hold the card in place, freeing up your hands. The instructions contain a bonus: a NO-PALM method for loading the BK side. At this price, you can afford it even if you rarely wear a jacket (it's a piece of luggage). When you get it, it may inspire you to start wearing one! Link to product listing at Solari Magic.

I have one as my everyday wallet plus I have a spare ready to go when mine gets to old, that said I'm thinking about getting a JOL Plus wallet next as it will allow me the same excellent features whilst allowing a few other things

And I stand by everything I said in that review. I don't understand why it's not a more popular wallet, unless it's perhaps because of it's size.
