 Hey everybody, welcome back to thebluecrown.com. My name's David and this is a deck review. Today we're gonna look at the new Snow Leopards, the new knock version three signature series from thebluecrown.com and House of Plain Cards. All right, so what are the Snow Leopards? The Snow Leopards are one of the most recent releases from thebluecrown.com in the knock series. The Snow Leopard deck was made to commemorate the knock signature series because they are the rarest of the knock series. And so oftentimes what happens is those special decks end up selling out. When they sell out, they go extinct. And so this deck was made in a very rare color, which offers a very elegant feel when you hold it in your hands. So I think whether you like magic, whether you like cardistry, or whether you just like gameplay, the Snow Leopards are definitely gonna be one of your favorite cards. Now originally when the Snow Leopards came out, they were released at Christmas time. Thebluecrown.com was offering them for free if you ordered a certain amount of merchandise. So if you ordered a certain amount, you'd get a free deck of knocks. But people really wanted these cards and Alex Pandrea didn't wanna keep them out of his customer's hands. And so what he did was he made them available. And so because people wanted more access, he listened to his fans. And now you have the chance to get your very own deck of Snow Leopards as well. These cards are printed from the Expert playing card company and they come in a sideways loaded tuck. It is this cream color wrapped all the way around. It's a matte color. And then you have that gold metallic accent. So that's a Snow Leopard down where it would have a signature and just a knock. On the bottom, there's some ad copy about the signature series and expert playing card company. And on top it says number four in Roman numerals. Other than that, there's a cigar band that wraps all the way around. Everything's just really striking, very beautiful. It's a very clean tuck. That is pretty much it for the tuck case. Let's take a look at these cards. Like I said, these cards are printed from the Expert playing card company and they have a very thick stock. If you're already familiar with the Expert playing card company or you've held knock cards before in your hands, you know that they're on the thicker end. They have a very thick feel, very slick, surfacey feel, but they feel great in your hands and they handle great. This is a fantastic deck for magic, terrific deck for cardistry and a wonderful deck for gameplay and poker. The back design is a solid field of this muted gold color. You're also gonna have a thin black edged border. Now the awesome thing about the knock three Ss, that would be the signature series is that this deck is fully marked. Now in the past, the knocks have been partially marked so you could know which suit perhaps the card was, but you wouldn't know the face value. These cards are fully marked, so that means when you stare at the back of this, you'll know it's the queen of hearts. When you stare at the back of this card, you'll know it's the ace of diamonds. And the way that you'll know this is that when you purchase this deck from thebluecrown.com, you will receive a PDF that will tell you exactly how to read the marking system. With this deck, you'll get two of the original knock jokers. It's a large black star in the middle and it does say Joker on either corner. Your ace of spades is also the knock ace. It's just a large center pip and in between that it has a banner that says minimal playing cards. Your pips, indices, and court cards will all be completely industry standard, making them instantly recognizable. This is another thing that makes them perfect for magic, cardistry, and gameplay. All right, so that's pretty much everything I can say about the snow leopard deck. If you're not already familiar with the knock series, I would say this is a great deck to pick up. This is a great deck to introduce yourself to the knock series and I think you'll fall in love with it the way I have. The knock decks are actually one of my very favorite line of decks and the reason is because of just the multiplicity of color that is available to you. I mean, think about this. You wake up this morning and you put on a red shirt. If you're gonna go out and do magic that day, grab your red knock deck. Wake up and you have a blue shirt, yellow shirt, green shirt, doesn't matter. You can color coordinate with your cards and that just makes you look more professional and I think that'll make you stand out amongst the rest. The other thing you can do is you can make your own poker set. You know, normally a poker set is red and blue. How boring. You can grab two different knock colors and create your own poker set that's unique to you and your style. And I think that's the great thing about the Blue Crown. They always make their cards with magicians and cardists in mind. Once again, my name is David and this has been your review for thebluecrown.com. Thanks, bye.
