ChrisEdwardsMagic says...
I love this because I perform a lot of strolling tableside um situations like that mix and Mingle close-up magic so what's great about this is you can place it anywhere that it will fit [...] this eliminates having to take up a pocket with a deck of cards because I don't have to use a pocket now.

Chris Edwards presents a quick review of the Colt 52, a deck holder designed by Gerard Kearney and Steve Thompson. The product is a simple, magnetic holster for playing cards, aimed at magicians and mentalists who perform strolling or table-side magic. It allows for easy access to cards without occupying pocket space. The Colt 52 features a carbon fiber print, comes in black, and is made of vegan leather.
