Designed to last a lifetime, this 16-inch long gleaming silver color metal rod comes alive in your hands. It rises up from under a handkerchief, then rises from its carrying case which is supplied, then moves horizontally right and left, and finally shoots itself ...high into the air! Absolutely no threads involved. It's like the Rising Wand, only made from metal and will last! No worries about the gaff breaking or having to replace it as it is strong and will last a lifetime with the proper care. You can cause a silk to appear at the end of the wand or even use it as a card stab in mid air!
