The 5 gimmicked staplers are specially designed that the total size of the staplers can be minimized as small as a normal Bicycle deck. So you can carry them easily when leaving home.
The secret of Cobra Kiss is also powerful. It's very safe and complete self-working. It has the following features:
- The audience can examine everything before and after performance.
- The loaded stapler is selected freely by the spectator.
- The magician doesn't see when the spectator selects and loads the stapler.
- The staplers are shuffled under a normal handkerchief, so even the audience doesn't know which one is loaded.
- Only one stapler is loaded.
- No thread, magnet, mark or extra stapler.
- No stooge or assistant.
- No electric device.
- Reset in one second.
- Easy to carry.

The Cobra Kiss is everything that is advertised. All the staplers are real and could have been bought at the local office supply store. The secret is very organic and clean.
In regard to the danger aspect, it is a close up routine designed for a table top with a small group. In that context you can create a real feeling of personal bodily harm.
You can find the Cobra Kiss at discount at certain times of the year from the major online shops, but even at full price it is well worth it, if you want to add the most compact version of this style routine to your performance.
I have several stage and stand up versions of this concept, all of them have different methods to discern the hidden danger item. The Cobra Kiss is the simplest, most organic method of any of them.
If you want to perform this concept close up, it is a great buy.

First lets talk about the actual staplers;
They are very compact and i love them for that, you can actually set them up into two modes, ready to go, or sleek and compact. They are very sturdy and should last you for ever. Unfortunately with the plastic and petite design they don't scream out danger, that is something that the magician will have to enforce.
The DVD it self is pretty short, but covers all the bases;The secret, the routine, and outs in case anything goes wrong.
The Secret: Buy the DVD and find out.
The routine: Again with the staplers themselves not being as freshening as a gun loaded with a bullet, it will be up to the performer to use his showmanship and sell the idea of danger. But i have used this at parties and have always come up with an idea on how to make it as dangerous as i can, going to staple your tongue is a sure way to get peoples attention :)
The Out: Yes the routine itself is pretty safe, i would not say 100% safe but 95%. this out covers the other 5%.
So over all, if you want to add a little danger to your show without making people squeamish by pulling out a nail gun, or a spike, and/or don't want to dish out the steep price for a spike or nail roulette, this is a great alternative.
