This is the most deceptive little pocket trick I've encountered. The rope (a shoelace, actually) can be removed and examined. But when it is pushed through the box, and the box is pulled apart, the rope is visibly cut. You can actually see the severed ends! But when the box is pushed back together, the rope can be pulled out and revealed to be whole again. When I received this and tried it out, I was completely baffled. It took a good ten minutes of fiddling before the secret became clear. At this price, an illusion that can fool the magician is well worth having.

Awesome effect. Great for kids and kids at heart. Whenever I am in the shop I always find an excuse to demo this item to anyone with children interested in magic. The kids love it and the parents get befuddled trying to figure it out.
