I know this review is age old, but I just wanted to add my thoughts as I have just received this wallet.
...And I think, for the first in a very long time, it's actually going to take pride of place from my Real Man's Wallet
It's about the same size, and is nice and slim - extremely slim without the insert, about the same thickness as RMW with. Some points:
1) It only has 4 credit card slots - 3 on the left side, 1 on the other and this one gets held in underneath the press-stud flap, so probably better for a card you don't use that often, or perhaps I.D. However, the slots can manage 2-3 cards each. But if you're one of these people with every store card/loyalty card there is, this may not be the best choice for you.
2) The flap on the right folds over both the "pocket" where the playing card ends up, and the paper money compartment, meaning your paper money is clipped in on one side of the wallet. Some might find this annoying, I actually quite like it as it feels more secure (I'm a Yorkshireman, remember?!)
3) The card load is
so - easy. This is the best thing about this wallet. There are very few reviews describing the use of this wallet as a palming CTW, because it was designed with no palming in mind, but it just so happens that it loads like a dream - in much the same way I imagine Harry Robson's CTW does. No fumbling and feeling for slides, no bending the card as you try to cram it down a narrow chute - totally dreamy. Your hand hits your wallet and you're 95% done.
There is ONE consequence of this, which might worry some users but really shouldn't. I don't want to reveal the workings, but you should have some idea if I remind you that this also functions as a peek wallet...
4) The one more negative comment I have is about the insert. The way it is made (the card comes longitudinally out of a press-studded pocket) means there has to be what is in my opinion an awkward bit of handling to use this, or at least, I feel the handling in the instructions is a bit awkward and angle-y. However, scouring other forums seems to suggest that there is a better handling available on the user's private forum - unfortunately this seems to have recently crashed or something as the link I've been given just has an error message - but I wait with baited breath.
Overall, although the current exchange rate makes this - along with shipping from the US - a relatively costly wallet, I feel it's well worth it. Perfect for people who want start on the adventure that is palming but want a no-palm option to bail out to... and equally those of us who are comfortable with palming but want a bit of versatility... or a bail out option too, just incase someone is really burning those hands!
The peek would be great too I'm sure, if I used it.
I'd give it a 9/10 - reduced by one for the somewhat flawed handling of the insert that comes with the instructions.
