A version of the guillotine has been in many performances…ranging from the small inexpensive finger cutter to large stage illusions and in between the arm cutter. I am very happy to be able to offer today a very well made and baffling version from Germany. A true quality product.
This is ideal for parlor and stage performances or even trade shows. It entails great comedy and at the same time the suspense that actual harm can come. Presentations range from a history lesson about the French Guillotine and its workings, to a new invention in the restaurant industry (a cucumber cutter that is safe to use) and many more. Your creativity at play…..
The basic effect. A guillotine is introduced that has two holes and it is demonstrated how it works by cutting a cucumber and carrot in the different holes. The device is then opened and the blade taken out so the audience can see clearly that we are talking serious business. The blade is inserted back and the device closed (the audience can still see the blade as it is protruding on both sides. A spectator is invited to be a part of the demonstration and insert her arm into the larger hole. The magician is even holding her hand as the blade penetrates the wrist, luckily no harm is done.
A baffling penetration effect, very well made.
This version includes a heavy duty stand so the prop does not take away any space on your performance table. The stand comes apart for transport.
