I've awoken to a beard of unusual greatness this fine morning! Well done Sir, it is a thing of beauty and admiration :) (Pre coffee lol always great to see a new vid posted. Keep'em coming and thx)
Thanks so much man!! I appreciate you :) I do plan on getting videos out consistently again now that I have found some content that won’t involve purchasing and reviewing all the new things that come out hahaha.
WTF??? How come 651 people watched this vid and only 39 hit "Like"? Even if you didmt like the video the suggestions of alternative tricks in the comments are well worth a thumbs up. Thanks Chris.Great job!
Thank you so much!! I love the Greek Peek so much, haha. Yeah the knife is kind of overkill but I used to be a scout leader and that’s the knife I also had on me when in the bush and when we were teaching the kids their knife skills. So it just became something I got used to carrying. I can see why it wouldn’t be legal everywhere. I use it mostly for opening packages now.. way less cool hahaha. Laws can be so different depending where you are.. We can’t carry firearms in Canada but other places you can.
@ChrisEdwardsMagic we can't carry anything in the UK 😂😂 It's cool, I carry one for my stabbed routine but have to keep it hidden and under a certain measurements. Great Peek is awesome, lots of other great stuff coming from VI so keep your eyes peeled 👀👀
@OllieMarsdenMagician my eyes are always peeled!! ;) haha. Regarding carrying potential weapons.. not being able to carry potential weapons is not a bad thing either haha.
Hi Chris, I appreciate carrying a few small items but as Jeff McBride says "Imagine your were a 'Real' magician, you would be able to do magic with anything." Tony Slydini used to make everyday items 'Come Alive' with his magic. We must not forget the wonder of some of the oldest effects with the simplest of items. Magi tend to have drawers full of old stuff which is still good even today. Regards to everyone, Paul (U.K.)
Yeah i can appreciate and respect that. I do things with borrowed and everyday objects as well. But personally if someone asked me to do something, I’d prefer to do something great that they will remember rather than something mediocre they will forget by the next day. That’s not always the case.. but being somewhat prepared isn’t a bad thing. Especially if you make an income doing this sort of thing. When I show someone something, that’s often an opportunity for hire and I want to make it count.
My everyday carry: TT, prof nightmare in shoelaces, pen for Greg Wilson’s recap, rubber bands, business cards that appear blank and are printed in the hand. And… Baloons.
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing! :) I love recapped. Printing business cards in the hand is great. There is also a really cool app called “card now” for iOS that allows you to magically print and produce your business cards from your phone.
Thanks Chris I have a large Jol Wallet so I will carry It & use It more now. I also like the look of the Greek Wallet have you used It much & had good reactions. Regards Geoff
Good choice! I love my JOL. It’s a big wallet but for me there is simply no comparison when it comes to card to wallet/loading cards, predictions and small objects. The Greek peek is amazing. The reactions are solely based on how you perform and present whatever you’re doing as it’s just a tool for getting written information. But it’s my favorite peek “wallet” now and I use it all the time.
That’s fair, I use next of wallets all the time when I’m working but I’m not going to carry those around with me in my pocket everyday. This was just an every day carry video.
I put it there, haha. It all depends on my interaction with the participant and what they are wearing. With misdirection it can be pretty easy to ditch an object in a participants pocket or purse. But if the person is really focused on watching my hands or trying to catch me then I won’t even attempt planting an object on them. I’ll just go to the wallet.
@jonahberg9280 you can fold a business card.. besides, I don’t care for center tears, or peeks like acidus novus. If I’m using billets to peek I’ll use a full billet peek by preference.
Some people will harp on you for that, but not me!! I’ve always been of the thought that I’d rather have more than I need than not enough. If I expect to be performing I’ll carry way more. But my everyday carry if I don’t plan on really doing anything, or I’m not going anywhere that I’d likely have the opportunity to do some stuff I’d rather streamlined now. There’s people who will argue that you shouldn’t carry anything. You should borrow everything or use everyday objects.. but I disagree. Do what makes you happy! My next video later this week is titled “casual night out carry” and that’s what I’ll take on me if Im expecting to have an opportunity to do some magic. I also filmed a number of other videos today that go over my strolling material for all ages/kids, adults, and strictly mentalism.
@ true, although I’m not yet a full time magician. So I’ve had many nights where I just brought all my stuff and didn’t do any magic, because I felt like it wasn’t the right setting… Now I’m more confident and I’ll find whoever is interested to show some magic to:)
I’ve actually recorded 3 versions of that! I did one for all ages walk around, adults, and mentalism. I don’t know if I’m going to upload though, they are pretty scattered. I think I will re-record them first. They were a combination of what I perform when I’m doing walk around in different situations as well as pocket management.
Thanks so much!! Yes absolutely still using cosmos. I carry it with me in my travel bag so I always have it, but I don’t carry it on my person daily wherever I go since it takes up a pocket and if I don’t use it that day it’s just extra baggage hahaha.
Awesome video Chris, love your stuff.
Thank you so much!! :)
I love these types of videos! Thank you sir!
My pleasure! I’m glad to hear that :) there are a lot more videos like this coming.

Great stuff, really enjoyed this!
Greek Peek is amazing, slightly biased but it's sooo good
You would be arrested with that knife in the UK 😂😂😂

@ChrisEdwardsMagic it isn't haha, I would say it's safer but stats don't say so haha
@OllieMarsdenMagician haha, stats can be tricky.

Really cool video and cool magic EDC too!
Isnt that band near the apple watch a magic wristband too? Like the one frm Mike Liu?
Yes that’s right! Thanks haha, I forgot to mention it. Used for vanishing or concealing coins. :)
@ChrisEdwardsMagic I recognised it just because I bought it many years ago and I've never used it ahaha
@TheTheBLACKdevil haha yeah I just wear mine
Thanks Chris I have a large Jol Wallet so I will carry It & use It more now.
I also like the look of the Greek Wallet have you used It much & had good reactions.

Thanks brother ❤️
Awesome brother cheers
Thanks brother
Thanks Chris ❤
My pleasure! :)
also i think ring to a nest of wallets is more impressive than ring to sealed envelope but thats just me
That’s fair, I use next of wallets all the time when I’m working but I’m not going to carry those around with me in my pocket everyday. This was just an every day carry video.
btw you're Wiki is still working ok? I updated my phone and now it's not working (IPhone) after years.
Mine seems to be working the same! I’m not sure if I’ve updated my phone to the most recent update though as I don’t have auto updates on.
@@ChrisEdwardsMagic mine was the same until I upgraded ugh I miss it.
@adeadlysin272 ahh damn man that sucks. I’m sure Marc is working on something if there is a fix needed. Thanks for the heads up though!
how do you make a ring appear in the spectators pocket?
I put it there, haha. It all depends on my interaction with the participant and what they are wearing. With misdirection it can be pretty easy to ditch an object in a participants pocket or purse.

you should carry around billets for mentalism the ultimate edc in my opinion i use he routines from julien losa billets for the modern mindreader
That’s what I use the business cards for.
@@ChrisEdwardsMagic im talking about folded billets like classic mentalism
@jonahberg9280 you can fold a business card.. besides, I don’t care for center tears, or peeks like acidus novus. If I’m using billets to peek I’ll use a full billet peek by preference.
i am you several years ago, I carry way to much and most of the times use half or even less of it. 😅
Some people will harp on you for that, but not me!! I’ve always been of the thought that I’d rather have more than I need than not enough.
If I expect to be performing I’ll carry way more. But my everyday carry if I don’t plan on really doing anything, or I’m not going anywhere that I’d likely have the opportunity to do some stuff I’d rather streamlined now.

@@ChrisEdwardsMagic I'll be waiting for your video:)
@OmeletDuRavage thanks!!
where did you get the buisness card case
Amazon
Record a gig / walk around
I’ve actually recorded 3 versions of that! I did one for all ages walk around, adults, and mentalism. I don’t know if I’m going to upload though, they are pretty scattered. I think I will re-record them first. They were a combination of what I perform when I’m doing walk around in different situations as well as pocket management.
@@ChrisEdwardsMagic cool
great review and update as to what you are using still doing cosmos !!??
Thanks so much!! Yes absolutely still using cosmos. I carry it with me in my travel bag so I always have it, but I don’t carry it on my person daily wherever I go since it takes up a pocket and if I don’t use it that day it’s just extra baggage hahaha.
