There are a few subtle advantages and displays that are possible with Hide-A-Key that wouldn’t be so with different finishes and though we did play with that, we decided not to for version one. Instead we went for smooth and patterned. My most favourite way to use Hide-A-Key over the last few months has been this: You remove a patterned key and ask your spectator to place it in their pocket. You show them your keychain with 2 keys. You show them very cleanly. You ask your spectator to hold out their hand and you place they two keys on their hand. They place their other hand on top. You claim that the key in their pocket will vanish from their pocket and appear between the two keys, on the keychain, in their hands. They lift their hands to see it has! * and freak out! You encourage them to check their pocket and as they do you take hold of the keychain at fingertips and let the keys swing. They pull out the key and as they look up, the keychain now only has 2 keys! It’s a fun, kickback style fast paced routine with keys appearing, vanishing and in their pocket. Super easy and loads of fun. Chris

I mentioned in the BP thread that this will go great with Gregory Wilson's, Freakey but it will also go very well with Greg's, Florida Keys routine and Ignition by Chris Smith. Easily unlock a half hour set that is perfec-key astounding! j/k

Nice looking effect! Puts me in mind of Joe Porper and R. Paul Wilsons effect KeyFly. Same gimmick, though KF is a double.
I don't care how fast or slow you are.... As long as I am faster.. -J-

Looks fun, Chris. I feel bad, but I’ll only be able to road test and review it for you later this month. So when you send me the free copy, just have a little patience with me. Busy times…
In all seriousness, I love it, visual with a fun kicker to find the key in a surprise manner like under the watch, etc. congrats on the release! |

If I buy two, do I get one free. Oh wait, it does come with two and then when seperated they are free.
I may be slow but this turtle knows how to handle his shell. This will make for a very romantic couples routine, When Two Become One. Have the couple hold hands with the keys in them.

This looks great, an ideal pairing with the KFC set. Imagine the Tommy Wonder style antics you could drum up combining these. Congratulations Chris, very nice!

Maybe I missed it, but is this exclusive to you? I’m asking because I still have gift card money to shops in the states from Christmas.

Without wanting to expose anything, once the key has vanished how snug is the fit ie is it likely to come away in the spectators hands which would obviously happen if it were a loose fit or are magnets involved ?
Also can we get extra regular keys with it so we could hand out the keys off the keyring to be examined at the end if we wanted to ? |

Hi Warren,
As I mentioned - this doesn’t lock and doesn’t have magnets, this is because when you start adding them, it becomes unrealistically thick, which is a dead give away. Hide-A-Key is 2mm thin, that's a fact we are really proud of. Locking does seem like a good idea, and we explored it but in practice it’s actually really limiting. And even without considering the unnecessary thickness, it is impossible to hide the seams on a keys reverse side so even if it was to lock, I wouldn’t feel comfortable handing it out to be examined as with a glimpse, you would be able to see the two sections. Because Hide-A-Key is mostly kept on the keychain, and because of how we teach it, you can do vanish in the spectators hands with ease without any risk of anything falling, dropping or un-nesting. Of course, by having your spectators hold it in their hands, it lowers any heat on the keys even more. I’ve created many brand new and original vanishes and also a startling appearance that goes from a spectators pocket, to between the keys, on the chain in their hands. It is really miraculous and also wouldn’t be possible if it locked. You cannot hand the nesting half of the Hide-A-Key system out for examination though because of how we have structured all the routines, nobody wants to examine it. This is because all the heat and focus is on where the duplicate key appears. And that part of the system can be examined all day long.

Which with Hide-A-Key is as simple as holding the key edge. Additional keys - not right now but it’s possible moving forward when we make the second batch. Chris
