Effect

The Billet Index in the Stealth Assassin Wallet allows magicians to secretly store and reference multiple billets (small slips of paper) during a performance. To the audience, it appears as if the magician has perfect recall or supernatural insight, as they accurately reveal information written by spectators or pre-loaded into the wallet.

Full Details

The Billet Index is a hidden compartment within the Stealth Assassin Wallet. It can hold multiple billets, enabling magicians to perform effects where they appear to know a spectator’s thoughts, predict choices, or reveal information without prior knowledge. The wallet also includes a peeking mechanism, allowing the performer to secretly view written information while maintaining the illusion of fairness.

Key features of the Billet Index include:

  • Multiple-Out Capability: The compartment can hold several billets, letting the magician reveal one while keeping others hidden.
  • Peeking Integration: The wallet’s peeking function works alongside the Billet Index, allowing for discreet information gathering.
  • Card-to-Wallet Compatibility: The wallet supports card magic, making it useful for both mentalism and traditional card effects.

Who Should Consider the Trick

The Billet Index is ideal for:

  • Mentalists who perform prediction or thought-reading effects.
  • Close-up magicians who want a versatile tool for impromptu routines.
  • Card magicians looking to combine mentalism with card-to-wallet tricks.

Difficulty

The Billet Index requires practice to use smoothly, particularly in managing multiple billets and integrating peeks naturally. The wallet’s instructional video (over two hours long) provides detailed guidance on handling and routines. While not overly complex, performers should rehearse to ensure seamless execution.
