The effect of a Card Sword is brilliant. A card is picked, then lost in the deck, and you send the pack soaring into the air, using a sword to skewer the selection mid-flight.
There’s just one tiny hiccup: the sword itself.
It practically screams "look, I’m a magic prop!" and let’s be honest, most of them look more like something from a low-budget film than a magician’s toolkit. Plus, they’re a hassle to lug around, and frankly, just not all that practical.
Enter "Sky Catch", the brainchild of Taylor Hughes and the clever folks at Vanishing Inc.
Say goodbye to the sword! "Sky Catch" replaces it with one of those grabbers that you’d use to fish out the remote that’s wedged behind the couch. This cheeky swap not only adds a dash of humour to your act, but also makes it instantly relatable for any audience. And it’s not just a funny prop; "Sky Catch" is also way more practical, easier to use, and sturdier than any Card Sword you’ve encountered before.
The redesign allows you to perform this classic trick with a signed card. No palming, no loading, no tricky sleight of hand (which, let’s be honest, is a relief). In fact, it’s probably the simplest Card Sword out there! Every little detail has been considered. It even folds down for easy travel, making it a dream for working performers.
You’ll get the full routine from Taylor Hughes, complete with his insider tips, tricks, and those little bits he uses to keep the audience laughing. This is the actual routine he’s relied on to close shows from the Chicago Magic Lounge to the Magifest stage. What you’re getting is a tested piece of parlor magic that’s compact yet impactful, whether you’re performing for 50 or 5,000.
Grab "Sky Catch" today and give your closing act the upgrade it so desperately deserves.
