I started out using less expensive options for Fast and loose. They were too light and slid around on the working surface. This chain is more expensive and worth every penny. It handles perfectly. I can't say enough in favor of it.

I have both the gold and silver chain, and perhaps this is anecdotal, but they differ more than just in the color/metal. The silver chain has slightly smaller links, and is maybe a half inch longer than the gold chain. My preference at this time is the silver chain, maybe because I've used it more and am more accustomed to its properties, but the functional difference is not very material.

Both chains are phenomenal for any endless chain / fast & loose routine-- the length and weight are substantial and perfect, and the chain weave never tangles, and adds to the deceptiveness if someone is staring at the layout. To be clear, the 'gold' version is not a shiny gold, it's more of a darker, almost like a non-shiny bronze-- but that's fine by me. Maybe it'll get shinier/lighter the more I use it.

Anyway, you can't go wrong here-- you get what you pay for-- and these chains are sure to last a long time and perform how you want. The impressive weight is particularly important if you do tabled 'throws' (rather than in-the-hands). Great stuff, highly recommended.

I bought a couple of chains from different sources. This is by far the best I've seen. Good weight, good quality. Highly recommended.

I am extremely enthusiastic about the perfect product and especially the service. Thanks for everything
