Forksaken by Mark Elsdon - Trick

Forksaken is the brand new release from Mark Elsdon and Saturn Magic. Combining his love of puzzles with his knack for creating powerful and practical magic, Mark has devised an incredible piece of close-up and stand-up card magic.

The spectator chooses a card which is shuffled into the deck and lost.

The deck is dropped into a paper bag which is shaken to shuffle the cards.

A dinner fork is examined and then stabbed down into the bag, piercing one single card.

The rest of the cards are tipped out and the bag is otherwise empty.

When the stabbed card is turned around it is the card that has been selected.

BUT get this: the card is now permanently and impossibly linked onto the fork! They are completely inseparable.

No tears, folds or misprints - it is a regular card and a regular fork, and the impossible object can - should - be immediately given away.

All the necessary props are provided to learn and perform this immediately with your own deck.

The video instruction includes the full method of how to make the impossible 'card and fork' object (which is easy once you know the secret), all the details of the full routine, plus bonus handlings including a torn corner version for parlour, close-up and walkaround.

Easy to do.

Use the bag supplied or your jacket pocket.

For close-up or stand-up.

Bag and ready made impossible fork included in red back bicycle card.
