Daniel Madison
The first three editions of Smoke & Mirrors were black and white. Therefore, we chose none other then Daniel Madison of the U.K. to showcase this edition. His trademark black and white style was the perfect fit.
In the beginning, the Smoke & Mirrors were designed to be a personal deck. They were custom tailored to our taste with original art by Si Scott. We never imagined they’d be used by so many, let alone the best in the world.
For the countdown to the final edition of our Smoke & Mirrors, we partnered with the best magicians and cardists across the globe to showcase the style, prestige, and excellence that is the Smoke & Mirrors.
Spencer Clark
The fourth edition was the first color edition and caught everyone by surprise. To showcase these, we asked our friend and expert cardist, Spencer Clark from Washington, USA.
Ben & Ambrose
After the success of the green edition, we knew we were on to something and we quickly followed it with a blue edition. For this, Ben You and Ambrose of Singapore present an casual display of cardistry that evokes the cool blue perfectly.
Virtuoso
After two color editions, there was speculation as for what the next color would be. Kinda like how there was for who would do this video. We asked The Virts of Singapore, and they produced one of the coolest videos we've seen.
Now it's your turn!
Are you for Smoke & Mirrors? Do you have what it takes to produce the final video? With the new editions, make a video showcasing the Smoke & Mirrors and you could win a lifetime supply of them.

When I received my Deluxe Box Set, I was just overjoyed. The Box is just absolutely gorgeous. The cards are so elegant and feel amazing in the hands. Every time I would open a box of them after an extreme amount of use, they felt like they were new again. I love this deck of cards. Definitely a 10/10 for me.

A few years back, when I was first branching out into the world of custom decks and playing cards, I came across this website. I saw the most beautifully elegant and simple playing cards I'd ever seen. It was exactly what I always wanted in a deck of cards! A beautiful, ocean blue, elegant and simple design. I bought 4 decks. That's it: 4. To this day, I still have the first one I opened. I still break them out every once in a while to use, and they still handle like new. I don't plan on opening the other three for a very long time.
These decks are everything those are and more! The metallic designs are absolutely stunning, the handling is superb, and they will surely last just as long and age just as well as my good old Paper Denim has. They are my absolute favorites, and I wouldn't trade them for anything.
You need to buy these before they are gone forever, or you will never know what you're missing.

This box is amazing and the cards also. I really like the new V7.
The Smoke and Mirrors are a must have for Magicians, Flourisher and Collectors.
So buy it as long as you can!

The smoke and mirrors! The decks we all love, now reprinted and "improved" together with the brand new V7. These cards are awesome, really! They handle great and look very nice. Wait.. Very nice? That's all? Not beautiful? Well.. I have to be honest here. I say this because they could, in my opinion have looked better. In fact, they DID look better, but then they changed the design a little, to make them a little bit different. To make this release even more special. I didn't notice at first, before I got them, that the colored versions have now got even simpler back designs. Simplicity! That's nice, right? I have always loved the simplicity of the these decks, especially the simplified faces. So this version is even more simple. Awesome! Waaait a sec. They changed the faces back to normal? What? But on the backs they go in the other direction. It's not right. They were close to perfection, but this is a step back, I think. I like the old back designs on the colored decks better too. On the other hand the boxes looks cooler. That's good. And some colors are adjusted. I don't know if that really makes them better.
So basically, I prefer the old design. But hey! The new mirror box is SICK!!! And V7 is cool.

Get them while you can, these cards are unlike anything else I have handled. Saying that, so are all the other Smoke & Mirrors. I use mine all the time and they still feel like new. The look of them is just as good as the way they handle. They are simply Stunning.
If you are a collector or a performer you need to buy these before they are out of stock. They are a pleasure to use. Dan and Dave, you guys have surpassed yourselves. You should be very proud.

To finish like this completely suitable for the Smoke and Mirrors. These cards are world famous and are among my favourite cards of ALL TIME. The only complaint that I'd have is the courts, if this puts you off never fear, these cards will grow on you! That's why I bought them...

The design is sleek and the handling is smooth. 10,000 of these deluxe box sets may seem like plenty, but it's great for people who are looking for beautiful decks to handle with.
It is also unlikely people will buy it to hoard because of its production amount so it's definitely a good thing for collectors, because EVERYONE has a chance to buy it!
Nevertheless, grab yours quickly because sooner or later... It's gonna be OUT OF STOCK!

These are the best card I've ever handled. The design is slick and very elegant. The colors are vibrant and the whole box really stands out.
One thing I'd have like to see different was for the face cards to have remained simplified. Other than that, these are truly perfect. Dan and Dave never disappoint!

Nice ending of the famous Smoke & Mirrors series.
This is the best series of decks ever produced. Handling is already out of question when speaking about Smoke & Mirrors decks; they are top quality of decks you can ever feel. But what really get me into these decks are the prestige look of the decks. They are truly masterpiece of cardistry.
I already got my first boxset of this on the first day they're released. And now I'm buying the second one. So, what are you waiting for?

These cards are perfect, even if I tend to share Alex R's opinion.
I have a regret, though. I own a few v5 and v6 I use on a daily basis. I really thougt v7 would just be the black one's. I would have bought a brick or two, and used them every day. Here, we have a box of beautiful cards I wouldn't dare to play with them.
To sum up, the "collector" me is happy, the "worker" me is a bit frustrated.
Anyway, these cards are a must have.
