If you’re just looking to switch, pocket 2 is your best bet - those other pockets all fit playing cards with no issues at all.
The only reason it’s a bit difficult to fit playing cards in the load pocket is that there’s an extra 2mm flap of leather that blocks off a tiny bit of the pocket near the spine, but this helps with the stability and build of the wallet. So we felt it was important to keep! But if you’re mainly looking to load predictions or peek business cards, standard size is definitely the right choice. I prefer the standard size myself, but most of our magician friends prefer the plus. Some people feel that the size difference is so small that it doesn’t warrant two sizes, but once you have played with both, it’s clear to see why we chose to make both sizes available rather than just one or the other. The devil is often in the details, so we prefer to ensure that everything is as perfect as can be so that everyone is happy!

Received both today, I’ll try to film a review soon 😊
First impressions are really good, leather is nice, stitching look very robust, plastic is fine too. The Orphic regular would be more like a SAW, a business card holder, a bit more designed for mentalists while the Orphic+ would be more like an everyday wallet and allows for more space for French ID and driving license. To be honest, even if it’s possible, I wouldn’t bother performing the card to wallet with Orphic, way too tight imo. I love the fact you can put quite a lot of stuff inside the Orphic+ which makes this a very valuable contender to be my everyday wallet. It does simple things: switch, C2W and peek but does it very well and it’s effective. I didn’t have a chance yet to look at the video explanation but I think it will be as good as the wallet. With this and Eclipse, The 1914 are a very strong mentalism company, congrats! 😌

I originally ordered the larger one but changed it to the smaller version, I’m hoping that my Eclipse cards will still fit inside?

I had the climax and sold it. I thought it was cheap and really had no interest in a switch. If you go for the switch you lose many slots etc. IMHO. So no big deal, I sell (get rid of) a lot of stuff. I like Lewis and have many of his items. I am a wallet buyer so that's where my money goes. I've spent $175 on a phantom and other wallets. But what I'd really like to say is that years and years ago I made my own double wall slot. Just slipped a piece of plastic in there and glued it in. Then added a slide so the card would always go between the cash and front etc. My current Herms wallet is such a wallet (I made it into) but I also added a dark piece of plastic at the top so the angles would display or not display. I can actually open the Hermes towards the spec after they place in the card and show them my fake hundreds (if you don't transmit your thought you win $100) Well they win either way. Most all wallets are limited in some way. The only real all around wallet IMO (always have to add IMO or IMHO haha) is the JOL large or small. I sold my large one I should have kept it. I think I'll get another. It does everything. The small one may be more effecient for an all around wallet and carry. I have a routine I perform where the money needs to be unfolded. The JOL handles this. So anyway, love you Ustaad, I've always admired your work in the café and reviews and knowledge. Lewis, I ordered your wallet. May continue to use my Hermes but supporting a creator is important. Also ordered the Eclipse cards. Good luck fellas, J |

Exactly John the sleeve of plastic may have been made more permanent by these boys (credit to them) but these ideas are years old and take about 10 minutes with a magical brain to improve on many peeks.
They are a good variation on a theme and if you get the principle most of us just do this anyway. That doesn’t stop me buying or respecting creators who have shut the door so to speak on these additions and have things professional ready made. However this item for everything that it gives I will buy all day long but I just don’t like it when certain people put down others just because of their knowledge when the sales pitch is potentially for the people who have absolutely no idea on these principles Gaz.😊 Respect to all, I love what Lewis has done here but Ustaad got flack he didn’t deserve imho |

The following is a general statement and bears no relevance to this thread.
All those who know me well, thank you for the kind words & understanding - THANK YOU.

I probably went too strong before but throwing around unfounded accusations when Lewis had answered all your points just isn’t fair. Quoting the bible and saying karma will catch up to you is just bang out of order. To be honest if you have a problem with Lewis’s ethics you should have contacted him directly. However you didn’t and he has answered you in a fair more professional way than I would have. Honestly you are making a problem here where one doesn’t exist. As someone who owns both wallets I can tell you they are chalk and cheese and there is no problem here. You seem to have a good reputation on the Café. Please stop this pointless crusade before that reputation goes down the toilet. You are creating a problem where one does not exist. |

Thanks Craig, sincerely appreciate that.
So, I just went back and watched Revelations . If you haven’t checked that out yet folks, give it a look(!). Now I’m re watching Iris, also great stuff. The1914’s built on a solid foundation for sure.

I’m so excited I just received my Orphic+ wallet. It is absolutely made with soft high quality leather. It does have a strong leather dye smell that does go away after it’s lived in your pocket for a week or so. It’s the same strong leather dye smell I had with shadow wallet. This is perfectly normal and after some use goes away. Perfect stitching and overall quality you would except from the 1914.
Very well packaged in the hard cardboard black 1914 box with magnetic closure. The wallet itself was wrapped in tissue and plastic for added protection. I already mentioned earlier the instructional video and PDF was worth more than the wallet itself. Overall this a great wallet that I strongly recommend
