Invisible Writer

The invisible writer is a great tool. Unlike other brands of the same type of instrument, this one hides in plain sight from the viewer, it is super comfortable to use (it fits all finger sizes, which is appreciated given that I have very small hands and do not usually I can use this type of devices) and it also achieves super efficient effects. I assume that there will be refills available and if not, in the case of the Pencil Invisible Writer, they are quite easy to replace. There is no con to this great product, basic for mentalists.

This is the holy grail of swami gimmicks. Buy it sight unseen.

The product is under twenty dollars. I've tried many writers of all shapes and sizes but I have thin long fingers and have not found a writer that I can use with fine control until I came across this one! At the end of the day, there's only so many ways a writer could look like/function. This offers the additional benefit of being able to slip the gimmick off and on with ease. The benefit of having the gimmick 'loaded' at nearly all times is perfect.

However, the instruction video is rather short/barebones (11 minutes) and only covers how to get in and out of the gimmick and how to use the gimmick. For ideas, I would pick up a copy of "The Nail Writer Anthology" by Thomas Baxter. Overall, every mentalist should learn how to use a writer and for me, this is the writer I'll keep. The replacement of lead seems simple enough and I see this writer lasting for a long time.

This is the first writer of any kind I've tried, so I can't compare it to anything. What I can do is tell you if you follow the instructions in the video, you'll be blowing minds! One second it's there, the next second it's in standby, completely invisible.
It took around an hour of practice moving it from one position to another, and another hour to make it a casual movement. The writing actually took less effort than I thought.
Today, I brought it to work with me. One of our customers brought up "mind stuff", so I wrote down a prediction, and laid it under a pen where everyone could see it. Then I proceeded to do a short "Dead or Alive" routine, revealing the name of the dead person he wrote out of a dozen or so alive names. But the sucker-punch got him when I picked up the folded prediction I made, prior to even telling him what I was going to do, revealing, "**** will think of the name Carrol." I thought he might pass out, lol.
My next order will probably include the grease pencil version of this killer, little, gem!

• Ron asks: Any reason why it simply cannot be shown? The logic is, no secret is being given away, and writers are always a tentative issue.
