I just got one, very pleased. I feel like it is one of the few purchases that has lived up to expectations.

Anyone know of a source of more envelopes? Mine ripped already a bit at a certain weak point...

I think Matthew explains how to make them yourself on his new dvd project along with a load of other envelopes.

I'm sure I could replicate it based on what I already have right... I mean this same envelope.... you know, made from tyvek and such and of the correct size

There are no "corners cut" with the wallet. It is made from the highest grade leather by one of the largest wallet manufacturers in the magic world. The same company that has probably made the 30 wallets you have played with over the past three years.

I just received this, and I am very impressed. I had no problem with the envelope. I would suggest you open the wallet flat and then insert the envelope. It fits just fine. I also really like the peek feature.

Nice work.

I also received one yesterday. The envelope is a bit fiddly to load, but hopefully once the wallet softens a bit it'll be easier.

I have to load from a jacket pocket which makes the handling different, but it still works.

yes, you are right. I always loosen up any new wallet by stretching it out gently.

I just started checking out the floating bill feature. Very interesting.

This seems like a perfect combination or "trio": card to wallet (or envelope), peek, and floating wallet or floating card.

This and Webber's Wallet might just be my new "two favorites".

Yeah...it's the nature of the beast I'm afraid. When you make something from a high grade leather it is always better after a little "breaking in". Same with a good quality pair of shoes. Glad you are enjoying the wallet 1KJ.

Any type of index in this wallet? Does it hold playing cards?

I bought the wallet and got it today.

I was so excited to the multi-features but very unfortunately, there is a very serious fault in my wallet that I cannot insert the envelope in my wallet at all!

I was surprised that why there is no quality control to make sure this simple feature work.

What I can say is, the right side of the extra thing that should put inside the envelope is totally sealed at the wallet. So I can only insert my envelope halfway in my wallet!

When I compare that extra thing to the instruction video, I found that the gimmick in my wallet is totally shifted to one side, but it was shown beautifully centered in the video.

I am very disappointed at the making of this wallet because it should be very very easy to spot this fatal error.

I will return the wallet and rethink if 'Matthew Wright and Marvellous FX always produces quality magic' is true....

Yes my plastic insert is off to the right as well. It is very difficult to set the card to envelope feature up. However the other two features, the peek and the floating bill work perfectly.
I do the floating note at every chance I get. People love it. The thread is very durable. It hasn't broken after many performances.
Actually this wallet works very well for ring to envelope as well. I don't worry about the card to envelope with it..It is too much mucking around.
Overall this is a great wallet.

I just received my Trinity wallet and will be going through the content in the next few days.

My first comment by just inspecting the wallet is that the wallet and accompanying accessories should have come in something more than just a ziplock bag.

The wallet arrived with undesirable crease lines, dents, and dimples in the leather wallet itself. Why? Because the wallet and accessories can move around in the plastic zip lock bag during shipping. When the accessories press against the leather while going through the shipping process, it creates these cosmetic defects on the leather.

I have purchased some wallets that do come in a box like ID by Steve Cook. I have also purchased wallets from Anthony Miller that are packaged in plastic bags. But since there are no accessories in the bag, there is no risk of cosmetic issues to Tony's leather wallets (ie.. dimples, crease lines, dents) at least in my experience.

next step: I will review the video instructions.

The video instructions are very comprehensive with live performances.

the peak, as mentioned already, works very well.

The card in envelope: its a great idea. Like everyone else, it is very difficult to get the envelope in place. My envelope is already splitting at the weakest link due to all the adjustments trying to get the envelope in place.

I did not see a template for the envelop nor any mention on if they are available.

I have not tried the thread yet. that will be next.

The floating bill is a nice addition. I think if the th...d is too long, it can get knotted up. happened to me already. reset is a little a bit tricky since the th...d is hard to see if you are in low light conditions.

Also, don't get to crazy with the wax. when you have to replace the th...d on the gimmick, it will be inconvenient.

Overall, it is a very well made wallet. High quality.

As for the load, I seem to have better luck on the p..ky br..k corner as opposed to the far end corner.

Interested to hear how others are doing it. If needed, put it in the secret sessions.
