Magic Review - Silver Finger by Matthieu Hamaissi

This video is a review of Silver Finger, a coin routine by Matthieu Hamaissi available as a download from Murphy's Magic. David, the creator of the Magic Orthodoxy channel, delivers a concise assessment of this slide of hand routine, which involves the production and vanish of three coins thrown into the air. The routine can be performed in two ways: as a series of vanishes or as a sequence where coins appear to rain down into the performer's hand. The download is structured around eight distinct stages, allowing for customization. David highlights that the tutorial, just under eight minutes long, is a brief overview with an over-the-shoulder shot, lacking detailed explanation. The dubbed voiceover slightly diminishes clarity, and he suggests it's best suited for intermediate to advanced coin magicians. Despite its brevity, David acknowledges the beauty and elegance of the routine and its potential for incorporation into other routines. He considers the $22 price a bit high given the tutorial's length. The video also subtly promotes David's merchandise, including his 'Magic Reveal T-Shirt' featuring six different magic reveals.
