The Outlaw wallet does not employ, a Stealth gaff, a Caper Case gaff, an Insight gaff, or a gaff like any other existing wallet. The card goes in, you put the wallet away, the work is done.
You DO NOT have to reopen the wallet to get the peek!
You DO NOT have to remove a card to get the peek!
The Outlaw has two inner pockets and an I.D. window (perfect place to keep your Sanctum card).
The card to be peeked goes in the inner pocket in front of a card ALREADY in the pocket AND in front of another pocket that has TWO cards in it. So, in effect, the peek card is now in front of three other cards AND another pocket! Nothing could appear more fair.
This is the exact same position the card will be in when you open your wallet and pull it out with a prediction already on the card.
The Outlaw Wallet allows you to P.W. or swami directly onto a card in the wallet, without having to open the wallet to do it!
The peek area is a full 3/4 of the card, enough to easily do a drawing dup!
The P.W. area is also a full 3/4 of the card!
I say:
The Outlaw wallet (actually a leather business card case) works as described.
You obtain your information after the case is closed. If done well this type of thing appears like a miracle to spectators.
The case itself is BEAUTIFUL! It is made from smooth, supple black leather with no brass corners. It is subtle elegance personified. It would look fine being taken out of an Armani suit or a denim jacket. The stitching is tight and the plastic “windows” are crisp and clear with no wrinkles or any colour distortion
You receive the wallet in a plain brown envelope (very appropriate for such a powerful mentalism tool). The instructions are to the point. You are given the basic workings and types of applications as well as credits for those who have inspired and assisted the makers as well as instructions on how to join the Outlaw users forum…very nice.
I love not having to open a wallet again for a peek. I have never had a problem about doing so, it’s nice to have the choice.
The case comes with a club membership card in it and lo and behold…my name was on the membership card!! This is a really nice touch.
The ability to write on a card is brilliant and the technicalities that allow this are very clever indeed. This really is a fantastic tool to have in your mentalism arsenal. It won’t be all things to everyone but flippin’ heck it’ll be very sweet to have this on my person when I head out!
Overall:
The Outlaw is not a trick, nor is itself-working. Outlaw is a serious mentalism tool for serious mentalism performing. The casual performer will have fun with Outlaw as it is very easy to use and the professional will be able to wield it like a sword.
Outlaw is a proper tool for powerful routining. Considering the price, the quality and what it does, you would be very silly to do anything less than seriously considering the Outlaw if you are in the market for a peek case.
