This could be a great wallet with a better loading mechanism or slide. I made my own out of PVC
card. That’s right, this turned into an arts and crafts project. Actually a puzzle; there are no
instructions. Zilch!
Here’s the thing: they give you envelopes that are rigid, and an
inner wallet with a window. A poker size card barely fits in either, so loading the envelope or
inner wallet is a feat in itself. The inner wallet has a slide, but, again, the lack of room makes
it very difficult to load.
I use the wallet without the extra crap and with the slide I
fabricated. Yes, you can load it while in your back pocket. If you’re handy, this might be for you.

I really LOVE the ease of loading with this wallet and it’s minimalistic design. I have been
practicing with it consistently for a few weeks now.
Because I LOVE this wallet, I really
hate to say this……. You get what you pay for.
1) The zipper sticks just a little bit. It
is not a smooth zip/unzip.
2) The ID Flap is sewn onto the main part of the wallet but
also uses additional glue. The glue is now peeling off and the thread is exposed. Cosmetically, it
does not look good. Without the glue in place, the action of flipping open the ID flap will apply
more stress onto the seam and threads. I can see that the threads will eventually stretch and could
then break with continued usage.
MAYBE if you do not flip open the ID flap too often, it
will not be a problem. Definitely do not load up the wallet with credit cards and packet tricks as
the thickness will apply pressure to the inner seam of the ID flap.
I still love the look
and feel of this wallet and the loading method, but I am really disappointed about the quality.
Again, you get what you pay for.

I'm very pleased with this wallet. Great look, fair price, and packed with possibilities. I have
used it for a lottery ticket effect, where the predicted ticket is inside the zippered compartment.
Super easy. A simple card to wallet (allowing a peek), just the same- using method 1. Method two,
requires a bit more prep, but is excellent for bigger presentation of the effect- the card appears
inside a sealed envelope (or mini-wallet) inside the zippered compartment. I haven't tried this one
yet, but I know it will be awesome. Method 3, card to wallet in front of the spectator's nose is
good too. No palming needed (and allowing a peek), and very slick. Overall, I can't see myself ever
buying another wallet for these effects. I'd buy another one of these Edge Wallets as a back up, in
fact. Very well made.
Good quality, you get 5 different ways to load a card. It's actually a wallet you would carry
everyday. The price is right and it does what it says. I recommend.
I own just about half of every card to wallet ever made and this is an excellent wallet! It is so
well designed and the only dislike I have is the weird looking snap latch thing however that’s just
personal preference. I usually never buy non leather wallets however for the price I bought it to
play around with. This does look cool and can be loaded with all tricks. Extreme Burn, Tornado,
Torch and Restored, etc…
At the end of the day I am happy that I purchased this wallet for
my collection however I would have payed double, even triple If this were leather.
My only
Gripe is 1.) it’s not real leather (which I knew up front) but it is made of very good leather
alternatives as many expensive wallets are. I do like this better than the Nexus Wallet, Sans Mind
Wallets and other P.U. leather wallets.
2.) I dont like the snap thing but it’s not a big deal.
I will buy a brown one just to add to my growing collection and I will use it on occasion
as it does load easily into an envelope that is inside the wallet.
I have found a much easier method of inserting the card to wallet in the back pocket. The wallet is
positioned horizontally with the zipper facing down, the wallet is stuck up by it size on the top of
the back pocket and the card is very easy to deposit in the slit …
I hope that one day this
wallet will be made of leather one day.
I had heard some positive things about this wallet so I thought I'd give it a try being that it was
under $25.I didn't know what to expect but I didn't really have high hopes. I must say that I am
more than pleasantly surprised! The wallet really is a well thought out, practical device. It is
very easy to operate, has several really cool features and is fun to use! The only reason I didn't
give it 5 stars is because it's not leather. I would pay twice the price if it came in leather and
then it would rival some of the most popular wallets out there. It's well worth the price even if
it's not real leather. It still doesn't look or feel cheap, it's very well made. I am very happy
with this purchase and I'd recommend it to everyone, even those that have the more popular,
expensive wallets that are out there now. I have several of those wallets too and this one holds its
own for sure. Please release this in leather, please!!!
One of the best wallets, if not the "BEST"!
Only one thing is missing: the leather and it would
be perfect.
With the explanatory video it's even better, we understand all the possible uses,
it is clearly shown how to use the envelopes, to steal a card without being detected (with a bonus
of another method which is perfect), and how to perform a Peek.
I am going to order two
more one for back up and one to make it like a normal Wallet
