I don't think any makes the mini-Asrah any more, but why do you want such miniatures? They will be seen as "toys" in most instances.
A good finger-chopper isn't a bad move but the better one's sell for around $100.00. . . then again, the last Mini-Asrah I saw listed cost a bit more than that.
This goes back to what I've been saying in nearly every post you've made; What's Your Goal?
You don't seem to have a core foundation given how many different things you're asking about. Too, in that you've not done any sort of Internet search for these things a.k.a. done any personal research (vs. asking a slew of questions about this and that trick -- not a good way to get known to a community, btw). You can track down effects by simply visiting less than a dozen magic dealers on line. The mini-Asrah, if still around anywhere, would best be found in the older brick & mortar stores like Abbott's or Magic Inc in Chicago and then too, a used one might be had by looking at resources like MagicAuction.com
Going back to something I asked you previously, my suggestion would be to invest in the following BOOKS before worrying about tricks;
1.) The Mark Wilson Course in Magic and/or the Tarbell Course in Magic
2.) Now You See it; Now You Don't volumes 1&2 by Bill Tarr
3.) Bobo's Modern Coin Magic
4.) Royal Road to Card Magic
5.) Magic & Showmanship by Henning Nelms
6.) Amateur Magician's Handbook by Henry Hay
These books will give you the basics -- a foundation from which you can grow you skill and creativity vs. codependency on tricks, most of which will end up in a junk drawer or on a shelf collecting dust rather than being used. By learning from these resources you will be more than able to do magic anywhere, any time with most any thing that you can put in your hand -- your knowledge and developed skill-sets are your greatest assets.
