Honeybee Worker Cards by Penguin Magic - Review
Jay delivers an enthusiastic review of Penguin Magic's Honeybee Worker Edition playing cards, showcasing their innovative UltraLux XT finish with AquaFlow coating. He highlights the vibrant colors and excellent design, particularly praising the borderless aesthetic which he finds ideal for card handling, cheating techniques, and special deals. The cards, available in red and blue, come in attractive matte tuck boxes with custom honeycomb artwork and are designed with working magicians in mind, featuring no seal on the box. Jay notes the exceptional springiness and minimal break-in time thanks to the new stock and finish, describing the feel as 'buttery and slippery.' While he acknowledges that the borderless design might pose challenges for certain routines like Elms Le Count, he strongly recommends the 10-pack for $60 (or $6 per deck), making them a great value for magicians performing card magic or gambling routines. Overall, he gives the deck a glowing recommendation and an impressive 8.5 out of 10, declaring them his current favorite deck to use.
