Smash & Stab
Wayne Dobson
(Based on 1 review)
"Smash & Stab" is the close-up, cabaret version of "This Is Your Knife," Wayne Dobson's stage illusion based on Russian Roulette but using daggers instead of a Gun.
Four hand-turned wooden discs, one containing a polished aluminium spike are presented. The remaining three discs are blank. Each disc has a distinct 'Pyrography' detail on the outer rim, not only adding to the beauty and appearance of the prop, but this system also conceals the method of 'sighting' and detecting the disc with the spike during performance.
Included are four numbered cards, a "Smash & Stab" sign and a wooden plinth, wallet, and polystyrene cups along with Wayne's complete routine and performance notes... Once again, you have all the comedy and fun that Wayne Dobson is noted for.
Ideal for close-up and cabaret performances, this hand-crafted beauty is made in selected quality hardwoods. It's a versatile magic prop that can be played for comedy or high drama! Whichever way you choose, you will leave your audiences spellbound! Your deale is not liable for any misuse and any injury that may incur due to carelessness on the part of the performer and will not sell it to anyone under the age of 18.

There are a number of similar effects like this but most of them require a large board or stand and use knives. Most of them are large and are only suitable for stage or Platform use and are also quite expensive.
Smash and Stab is the complete opposite. Although not cheap it's still in the range of most performing magicians pockets.
Smash and Stab is small enough to take around doing table hopping but gives the impact of a full stage illusion! With nothing mechanical to go wrong. unless 'Touch wood' you're not concentrating it is perfectly safe.
If I have any gripes about the trick then it's the amount of polystyrene cups that you go through, but believe you me for the impact that this one has especially when you audience chooses which cups to squash, It's a small price to pay!
I'm not into knife through arms, or bullet catch type tricks but this can be both funny as well as full of suspense.
Well worth getting, but as the advert says not for under 18's.
