Knife Thru Coat by Dave Powell - Trick

Includes 2 specially gimmicked knives and gimmicked target !

I have been fooling people with this routine for 30 years ! ... Dave Powell

The magician has a spectator examine a knife then borrows the spectator's coat and has him hold it up straight . Placing a piece of newspaper with a target over the front of the coat, the magician takes the knife and thrusts it through the coat and the target.

To the spectators relief and surprise, the coat is perfectly unharmed!

Extremely easy to perform and may be done close-up and surrounded.
