"The Butterfly deck will enable you to perform miracles not possible with any other deck. A true innovation in card magic."
- Richard Kaufman (chief editor of Genii Magazine - the largest selling magic magazine in the world)

The unique marking system hidden in the back-design of The Butterfly Playing Cards contains two different marking systems that can be used separately, and they will make you a miracle worker if they are combined. An explanation of this written marking system explanation is included, as well as a link to online video instructions.

The cards were designed with two main goals in mind.

1. They have to be complex and irregular enough to disguise the markings.
2. They have to be pretty enough to justify their use over a more common deck of playing cards.

Cartamundi's card stock is soft, the finishing feels amazing, and it is very durable. And their quality control is so strict that any deck containing even a single card that is off-cut for more than 0.5mm gets discarded.

"This is the most ingeniously designed marked deck I have ever seen in my life! You can do miracles with this pack that cannot be performed with any other deck of marked cards. Wonderful... absolutely wonderful!"
- Daryl

ehm.. Report this review

well.. it's obviously good, but:
1) you can't use it in one close-up set with bicycle which I use in all card tricks
2) you can't do a deck switch
3) marks are easily can be found by anybody, literally anyone can find it just with comparing 2-3 cards, and if you riffle - all the details are blinking on the cards screaming "here are the marks!"
4) too overpriced for just one deck (which you will need to replace)
So it's good for collection or one trick occasions, but useless for pro work at gigs because of deck's "strangeness" and easy marks spotting

These Cards Are Diabolical But... Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 31st, 2019

I absolutely love these cards and just performed a couple of miracles with them 2 hours after receiving them. As one other reviewer pointed out these are definitely not bicycle cards and spectators may become suspicious because they don't have cute angels riding bikes or plucking mandolins. I absolutely did get a couple of spectators asking me to see the cards and I have to tell you they didn't see a thing. The 2 women who asked thought they were pretty and then handed them back and let me continue. One thing I do at a gig with cards like these (Adam Wilbur's keepers) is talk about how Target is releasing a lot of interesting cards these days that are non-traditional and that I'm bringing them to make me less bored and change things up so we all win. That usually sets people at ease and the cards no longer have heat on them.

As for cost, deck switches etc., yes you're right on all that. I deck switched 808's for 809's all the time and no one has ever caught me using Penguin's marked decks that's why they're so great.

But these give you what looks like true magical skill with the borderless design and markings. Cutting straight to aces no crimps, breathers etc. The refills are pretty nicely priced and will be purchasing these asap. I'll be using these in walk around gigs to change things up. I hope that helps others make their decision and provides some insight into how another strolling magician has used these babies. As always your mileage may vary due to style etc. but these are going to work well for me.
