Are you saying that you think you have to reopen a jaks wallet to get a p**k?!


No, I'm saying you don't because it's not a open wallet peek. Smile

Ah, thanks for the clarification peeps. I'm perfectly happy with the Jaks style, so all good on my side.

Hey Jan, you must be thinking of his other wallets? This new one does. It's the previous peek wallet that doesn't. Great stuff.


You are right! There is the "Peek Note Wallet" and the "Peek Wallet". The "Peek Note Wallet" takes banknotes, while the "Peek Wallet" (which is in fact a "Jaks Wallet") doesn't. I was referring to the "Peek Wallet" which I use and really like. It got the advantage of taking also openly credit cards and business cards which sets it apart from other "Jaks Wallet" type versions. Jan

Apologies for coming back to this a little late. I think all the questions seem to be answered now. But any other questions, I'll do my best to check back in.

Ugh tried the website and got error messages. Went to Penguin and ordered through them.
Looks like I'll finally try a break from my beloved SAW.
Look for all the world like you're counting the brain cells in his cranium.

This is a fantastic wallet and has (gasp!) replaced my SAW.

Peek Note Wallet – Secret Tannery

Product description: Guys, you know how much I like good quality products, such as really nicely made gimmick coins, brass things or leather gears. Secret Tannery is an outstanding company which produces wallets for the working magician. They had the Rebel & Rebel Note wallets which were awesome (still using mine by the way) and they have now produced the Peek & Peek Note Wallet, which allow you to peek something written down on a blank piece of paper. It’s made incredibly well and works a treat, let’s dive into this review.

Price and where to buy it: This is sold at 100€ and you can find it here https://www.secrettannery.com/product-page.

What you get: You get a nice cardboard box, which was missing in the previous wallet I think. Here, you get a real finished product with a designed packaging. Inside, wrapped in paper, is the wallet. The leather is the same high quality as the Rebel Note one along with the blue stitching. It’s a 2 fold, 3 “windows” wallet which can be shown front and back without exposing the gimmick. You’re also provided with an explanation video which is a bit too short in my opinion, it could have been longer with more routine but I’m a bit nit picky on this one. The wallet is small enough to be carried in your pocket but it has still room inside to put several credit card. Overall, this is a really nice product which will fit into many magician’s repertoire, because it can used as your everyday life wallet and also as a powerful magic tool.

Teaser: https://video.wixstatic.com/video/62c0f0......file.mp4

The pros and the cons: Here is the core of my review, let's begin with the cons, as I will usually be doing, I prefer to keep the good things for the end.

THE CONS:
As I said, I would have liked the explanation video to be longer and with more routines inside, I know many will be buying this knowing what they want to do with it but I really liked the Rebel video and I was hoping more.

THE PROS:
The leather on this is so nice, I like everything about it, the smell, the feel and it looks luxurious too. This is something important because I want people to see I’m using quality item.
The peek is ingenious, this is different from the peek wallet he already released a few month ago because this can be shown both side without any fear of exposing the peek.
You have a lot of room to place your bills, credit cards and business cards, which means this can easily be used as your card holder.
The peek is very interesting because it’s direct and you get a full view on it. No reflection are used and the peek can be obtained just with the action of moving the wallet on the table.

Overall rating: Quality, easy to do, full and direct peek what else are you looking for? I love Secret Tannery more and more, they are on a roll, 4/4 hearts.

As for the difficulty level, the peek is easy to obtain, you just have to construct your routine and you’re good to go, 2/5 stars.

Similar products: I like a lot the Viper 2 Peek Wallet from Mindbox, which is also amazing.

Anyone been in touch with Gerard recently? Been emailing him but to no avail. Alternatively if anyone has one of his Jaks wallets can you let me know as I have a few questions regarding it.

Hey Ed, I just ordered one from Tannen's as my curiosity got the best of me, so I am happy to once it comes. But I am also sure others here that already have it can help!

Ed, I just bought a wallet from him a week ago, he was very quick to reply to all my emails!

He posted my wallet very quickly too through DHL, there was an additional cost on my shipping with DHL as I apparently live in a remote area, when Gerard mentioned it to me after he shipped, I offered to pay the extra but he would not except It as he said he already quoted me the shipping without it and he would carry the extra cost on his behalf! A true gentleman, I will definitely do business with him again!

My wallet arrived yesterday (I ordered the elite wallet) and I could not be happier!

I received this today. Probably my 376th wallet. But I love this, the handling makes so much fun, it‘s so bold. Amazing wallet!
