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.
