 Hey everybody, welcome back to magic orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a deck review Hey today, we're gonna look at the black honeybee deck from penguin magic and Randy Butterfield You might remember a pigment magic has now put out a couple of these decks They did a previous honeybee deck that was done in yellow and this is the second addition to that This is the black honeybee deck now. This deck is extremely rare once these decks are sold out They will not be reprinted. So if this is something you like or are attracted to as a collector I would highly recommend you head on down to penguin magic calm and buy a brick across the face of the tuck case It says number 15 and honeycomb back says honeybee right there in gold And then of course there is a nice picture of a honeybee and the bottom says playing cards made in the USA This side says penguin magic this side says grade a made in the USA The bottom has some ad copy about p3 penguin magic calm And then the top has some border design as well as an original tuck seal The back design is a bordered frame of the back design of the cards and that is pretty much it for the tuck case Let's take a look at these cards. These cards are printed from the United States playing card company And they do come on their a casino grade thicker bee stock. They are also traditionally cut All right. So with the honeybee cards, I love how they feel. I love this stock Of course, it's bee stock. So it's nice and thick, but it's also snappy and springy It doesn't feel as thick as a traditional bee stock But you do get a lot of action off of these and of course the Q1 deck So all your edges are really smooth all the corners are really smooth and it's a bicycle deck. So it's just buttery soft I love this deck. They do have air cushion finish and Magic finish and if you want to learn more about stock cut or finish or magic finish You can click the link below in the description The back design as you can see is very similar to the earlier yellow honeybee deck Except not in yellow. It's now done in black and it's that honeycomb waffle pattern that you see pushed all the way to the edges So again reminiscent of a casino style Back with a full bleed and then you have a honeybee on the top and the bottom with this deck You're going to get a gaff card, which is a double backer, which is great for magic tricks And you're going to get a second gaff card, which is a seven of diamonds that has a moved bee from one side of the card to the other With this deck, you're going to get two original beekeeper Jokers both the jokers look completely identical to me. I didn't see anything special in there But maybe you see something that I don't you could let me know in the comments below the ace of spades carries that same Honeybee iconography with a nice big Honeybee hideout right there in the ace of spades at the top and it does say number 15 underneath a bunch of flora and fauna The red pips and indices have a much darker deeper red color But I think deck collectors and magicians will appreciate and the black pips and indices cards are all going to be completely standard and Instantly recognizable the court cards in this deck I think are truly unique and really what makes this deck pop and stand out The court cards are going to be traditional In appearance and weaponry and clothing But the coloring has all been redone in these silvers and blacks and deep golds that carries that same Theme of the black honeybees All right, so that is my deck review for the black honeybee deck from Randy Butterfield and penguin magic calm I want to thank Kevin Rialik and everyone down at penguin magic for providing this deck for me So that I could do a review for you and as always we recommend that you like this video Just so other people can find it faster We also recommend that you subscribe to this channel just to stay up-to-date on the latest in cards and card magic Now if you want to follow me on social media, you can I'm at facebook comm slash magic orthodoxy twitter comm slash magic orthodoxy and instagram comm slash magic underscore orthodoxy.
