Agreed!
I still have a great Svengali Deck Routine that you would never guess I used a Svengali for.
Trick decks are great tools. Magicians have them when they are young and they get stuck with the idea that they are made for "KIDS."
These tools in the hands of a skilled Magician are LETHAL.
You can thank sites like "***********" for promoting Knuckle Busting slights as they way to go and earn respect.
I agree. It's great to know the slights and to be able to do these amazing effects. But sometimes, the lasting impression is done with a trick deck. Besides...don't we always say, simple is better?
