Fasten (Gimmick and DVD)

 (1)

Fasten is not a trick, but a gimmick. This will allow you to perform a lot of effects, using regular Bicycle playing cards.

The main purpose of this gimmick is to allow you to force or to switch playing cards, out of the card case. You can also use it to vanish or make some card appear.

Fasten is so clever and easy to use, that it will fool badly.

Comes complete with a DVD, two gimmicks and a couple of effects fully described : Double coincidence, and Sliced.

Double coincidence : A spectator shuffle a regular blue deck of card, and pull two cards out of the deck, without looking at them. You take a red deck, and perform the exact same actions. Cards are placed in their card case. Once revealed, both cards are the same ones.

Sliced : Have a spectator pick a card between a small pack of cards ( 7 or 8 ), and signed the card. The small pack of card is placed in the card case, along with a razor blade. Shake the box a little bit, and open it : All the cards are in pieces, except one : The signed spectator's card.

This gimmick is the open door to a lot of routine and effects to perform, and can also come in handy to get you out of some tough situation, allowing you to swiftly switch a card or a group of cards.

Comes in RED only !

This is a gimmicked card case that allows you to switch cards. I’ve reviewed several gimmicked cases as of late, and this one is definitely the most complex, yet it might be the most versatile. It can basically be used a Himber wallet, and can be shown ‘empty’ after the switch has taken place. One of the negatives is that you receive it dismantled, and you have to finish constructing it. While that’s the only real negative for the gimmick itself, the teaching materials are really kind of cheap. There is a printed sheet of paper showing you how to construct the gimmick. What puzzles me is that a DVD is also included. The DVD only teaches two effects, and is barely ten minutes long. Why they did not film how to construct the gimmick is a mystery to me. All in all, for twenty bucks, you get an interesting gimmick that has some unique features. Gimmick gets four stars, instruction gets one, making for an overall rating of three stars.
