Description
Presentation
A beautiful wooden tube, a wooden “sword”, along with a bright red block with a hole running through its center are displayed. The performer then openly inserts the sword through the holes in the sides of the tube, blocking its passage. The block is then dropped into the tube where it is heard to stop as it hits the sword. Now, the performer merely taps the tube against the palm of his hand and to the spectator’s surprise, the block magically penetrates the sword and ends up visibly in the window at the front of the tube! The sword is then removed and shown to be perfectly solid!
The performer now offers to repeat the trick. However, after the tube is tapped, the block does not fall out! The performer says he doesn’t know what went wrong as he can’t get this to work. So, he opens the tube at the center and it is seen that the block is now impaled onto the sword! Everything can then be handed out for complete examination, if desired. A great Block Penetration with a surprise finish!

Second Routine:
“The performer now offers to repeat the trick. This time he taps the tube very lightly against the palm of his hand for a few times and the audience can see that the block does not fall out! So, he opens the tube at the center and it is seen that the block is now impaled onto the sword! Everything can then be handed out for complete examination, if desired. A great Block Penetration with a surprise finish!”
We are confident that the version of this penetration effect has never been available before. Please don’t confuse this with other version’s that can’t be examined at the end. This is one of the prettiest and most unique block penetrations ever created!
The tube stands approximately 17.5cms tall and is completely hand-crafted from genuine teak. The block is approximately 2.7cms square.
Special thanks to Mr. Tony Curtis for coming up with the name for this effect.
