Hi David, I have been waiting for your informative, insightful, candid and enjoyable review, and today here it is! Thank you for all you do! Your friend David
as son of a shoemaker I dare to say that crazy horse leather is one of the best kinds of leather in the world (full grain). So that's a big plus. Looks like a nice wallet, but I have the FPS (Brown also crazy horse, love it) and an Orphic..The FPS is mij EDC, I like the moneyclip, still use cash. But I like you reviews, always follow it, thanks.
Thank you, I have this on order from Vanishing inc (an amazing dealer), watched the tutorial, and had no problem with the sound. I think the instructions point out you can use any slide and leave it in the wallet. I like the idea of loading a card and bringing the wallet out where it can be shown empty before having it appear. Interested to see the peek, though I think it may be a bit of overthinking!. But I think this will tick all my magical needs and EDC (till the next must-have)
I think Apex has three issues: 1. Zipper is really bad and no one expect paying 99 and DIY before perform. 2. The open and close window function is unnecesarry. (If the audience think or feel you’re peeking, they wont believe you read mind but they just dont know “how”) 3. Need to remove credit cards to properly use the switch function. (If you have "Quiver", you know it doesn't work well with two solid card glue on either side) I think this wallet is smart, but it's too "clever" and not good as EDC. I think for mentalist, Orphic still better than Apex. (peek, switch + spaces), for magician, maybe the zipper would be an advantage with card to wallet.
I’ve been waiting to hear something substantial. I’ve heard about the peek activation gimmick ‘breaking’ and other parts of the wallet not working right, but it’s all just rumor. I haven’t seen one up close nor do I know someone who has one…yet. Figured I’d hold off on this one and just utilize my Orphic+ and Quiver+ utility items to do what I need done until I learned more. Still not sure if this is for me or not, yet…but this review certainly brought me closer to making that determination and puts it in a more positive light than what I’ve gotten through the grapevine. It sounds like it provides decent instruction and example performances, but it is a shame that no microphones were used. Thanks again for doing this one. Strange how little there is on it out there at this moment.
Thx David! Really can’t find much review on this. Even though I ordered it, it feels good to hear your opinions, since I heard some negatives around the internet. (Like it’s easy to get broken on the “quiver” feature..)
Mine has fell apart. Peek wouldn't work when wallet was full. So removed peek system and replaced with business cards. Enjoyed using it more and was getting a better peek. Then the mouth of wallet broke open. I have glued it countless times as have made and sold wallets in past It's trying to do everything and too small to do it. Gone back to my saw . I've had 2 saws only because the dog ripped the first one apart. Alakazam were kind enough to send out a replacement at a discount
Hey David, you did such an effort trying not to expose the peek mechanism but at the beginning of the video they show how it works very clearly! Great job anyway !!
Hey David I know this a older review but I found this wallet on sale for $40 and wanted to know if you think it’s worth it. But also know I have the razor wallet and the Orphic. And I also have the best peek wallet ever made 😉. So knowing all that would you buy this again for $40?
OooOoOo I've been looking forward to this one! edit: I heard the himber features are basically like having a quiver built into the wallet, is that right?
@@magicorthodoxy mostly good … some scratch issues and wear and tear on the ID holder … I use the money clip with it and it hasn’t torn wallet … I’m still pleased with the size and flexibility
Thanks David always look forward to your next Wallet review..! Understand your obsession with magic wallets..! 😂 Ps Still love the FPS wallet for its simplicity & design etc…
Very informative review, thanks! I'm also a wallet junkie and have multiple gimmicked and regular versions in my collection. For some reason, this one jsut doesn't feel right to me. Too big for a minimalist, too small to need a zipper and that gaping Quiver section that doesn't appear to be as reliable as a Quiver (where you can have a spectator open it). So a pass from me, but an informed pass thanks to a great review.

tell your friends !!!
I enjoy watching your honest reviews and interesting non geeky take on gimmicks and tricks. As a beginner wizard it’s great to watch. From London UK.
Awesome, thank you!

I could certainly see how someone could break their peek - like I said in the video - it's fragile
Thx David! Really can’t find much review on this. Even though I ordered it, it feels good to hear your opinions, since I heard some negatives around the internet. (Like it’s easy to get broken on the “quiver” feature..)
I do think you need to be very careful with both the quiver feature and the peek - they both feel very fragile to me
@@magicorthodoxy thx for the info! no quite use the peek. Feels like need to be extra careful for the quiver feature then.
I've owned this wallet for about a month now, and I love it! I haven't used it in the real world, yet... I agree about the audio! 😖
Thanks for sharing!
Nice it is like a glove leather huh?! Thanks for the review!!!
Pretty much!
Hey thanks for the review! Not sure I understand... you say they provide other possibilities, but can we do card to wallet without a glide?
I suppose anything is possible with enough practice
Ok, thanks for the answer man! Keep up the great work
What wallet do you use most often?
card to wallet by quiver
Hi david is the comparison you made with the orphic or orpihic plus?
must be the plus since that's the only one I have
Thanks David,great review, I don’t own many wallets so for me this is a great wallet with so many features in one.cheers
Glad it was helpful!

Wow, can see there is a mafia here. The Wallet is rubbish, You wont use it as it wont last long, sticthing is awful, too much going on

This sounds like an amazing wallet! I’m going to have to get one! Thank you!
Hope you enjoy it!
My apex wallet is on its way. Got one of the last few brown ones at penguin. Can only preorder them now. Excited to get it.
hope you like it
@@magicorthodoxy me too
OooOoOo I've been looking forward to this one!
edit: I heard the himber features are basically like having a quiver built into the wallet, is that right?
oh good
Love this wallet - thanks for a really awesome review.
Thanks for watching!
Why does many people say that the quality is bad for the price?
Do you have this?
Can it accommodate a bonsalope?
very thorough review David 👍👍
I’ll keep my Nexus as my EDC
Why would anyone do a video tutorial without a microphone 🎤🤷♂️
how's the nexus holding up
@@magicorthodoxy mostly good … some scratch issues and wear and tear on the ID holder … I use the money clip with it and it hasn’t torn wallet … I’m still pleased with the size and flexibility
Better than lynx wallet 2.0 ?
What is the best wallet 3 in 1 ?
I should do a best wallet video just for you !!!
@@magicorthodoxy thanks 🔥💯
Is it better than viper wallet??
not in my opinion
Great review! Can the wallet hold 4 playing cards?
in 1 slot?
David can this wallet do a NO Palm card to wallet effect?
You know your a magician when you own 20 wallets lol.😆
yup
Thanks David always look forward to your next Wallet review..! Understand your obsession with magic wallets..! 😂
Ps Still love the FPS wallet for its simplicity & design etc…
Thanks for watching!
Easy load not hassle to perform?
I think I mentioned in the video that it is not easy? Takes a lot of practice
Switch gimmick is the same gimmick found on the quiver wallet
ish

no - spectator can not open it
I've got 6 wallets. I don't need half that number ..... So will this be my 7th?
who knows?
Doing a 3 hour tutorial without mics 🎤 is a letdown. Companies like Penguin and Alakazam would not make this error.
its difficult when you have multiple people on camera
True but better than the days of written instructions.
True, but then so are VHS videos, and I don't buy those either. 😁
100th like!!!🎉🎉🎉
Legend!
Thank you for the biased reviews.
