Excalibur (New Version) by Future Magic
(c. 1997,2020) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)Created by Karl-Heinz Tanczer who is one of founders of the amazing German Magic Manufacturer and Dealer Future Magic who produce a very solid selection of fine quality magic that is shipped world-wide. Before Future Magic Karl-Heinz Tanczer created magic for Eckhard Boettcher among others.
This is the latest version of Excalibur – the main pedestal weighs exactly half of the original Excalibur (from 9.6oz to 4.8oz) . Often reducing the weight of a prop is a good thing, and there is no doubt the original is heavy. However, I have used the original for years and I find that the heavier version is easier to use and more convincing because of the very solid base. You can still perform the same effect with the new one, but if you can I would track down one of the originals. The original also has a nice brass handle which I think looks better (the final photo shows both versions side by side).
Effect: While the magician tells the tale of the legendary sword known as Excalibur, he presents a plinth with a slot and a bore at right angles to it. The magician places a ring, previously examined by the audience, in the slot and pushes Excalibur, the sword with magical powers, through the bore so that the ring is trapped in the slot. The plinth is placed on a spectator’s hand. The magician lifts the ring, which now passes through the sword and is released.
But that is not all: The ring is again placed in the slot and can only be released by removing the sword.
An illusion which excites all magicians, not only because of the astounding effect, but also because of the wonderfully crafted props.
