The PERFECT PRACTICAL 'DANGEROUS' trick for HALLOWEEN

4 color shoelaces are displayed, all held together, side-by-side, in one closed fist with the ends of the laces completely visible. 

The performer then explains the premise; a "Russian roulette" type effect... 3 of the 4 shoestrings will be grabbed - and PULLED - from the performer's hand, one at a time, until only one string remains in the hand. 

After a couple of FREELY SELECTED shoelaces have been stripped from the performer's hand, the performer tells the audience what the hidden "mystery" item is; a RAZOR BLADE.

Tension builds as, one by one, strings are randomly pulled out by different spectators. They with only two remaining the spectator is asked to grab one. Suddenly the performer wildly pulls his fist back, freeing the empty string. Now only one string remains in his hand. 

With no funny moves, he opens his fist, revealing A VERY REAL RAZOR BLADE.

I like this! I honestly had my reservations when I ordered it, wondering if it would be as practical as I had hoped. The first time I performed it answered my question. Now, I love it! There's a few other variations out there of this type effect and this is my favorite so far!

Great routine overall! Although, personally, I would skip colouring the laces. If you do, then there is always the potential the sceptic will claim you always knew which lace it was. But, if they are kept white, it's far easier to baffle even the critics that "think" they know how it's done.

Also, it would be nice to be able to purchase extra replacement blades. True, you could buy a box of blades at the store down the street, and dull them yourself. Except, it does require extra prep and tools, which isn't always convenient. Besides, not everyone should be trusted with sharp things.
