Knife Through Bill
Performer shows a knife and a currency bill or note which may
be borrowed.
A piece of paper, the same size as the bill is folded in half, and the knife
pushed through the middle. When the knife is pulled sideways, it rips through
the paper, as expected.
He then places the bill over another piece of paper of the same size and creases
them in half. The knife is pushed through both the bill and paper. He opens the
crease and the spectators can see the knife going right through the bill and
paper from both sides. The performer creases them again, and pulls away the
knife ripping through the bill and paper at the crease. When he opens them, the
paper is found to be ripped as one would expect, but the bill is totally
unharmed.
We supply the special mechanical paper knife (with wooden handle, and steel
blade) that makes the illusion possible, along with complete performing
instructions. You can perform this with any borrowed currency bill.
