Kim Wist – KW One-Hand Pass

Finland’s Kim Wist has achieved what sleight-of-hand experts have pursued for nearly a century: a practical one-handed pass suitable for real-world performances.

For years, enthusiasts of the classic pass have sought ways to justify bringing their hands together to discreetly shift cards. With the KW Pass, that need is eliminated. You can control a card while holding the deck at your side or gesturing naturally. This move is seamless and is the result of over fifteen years of dedicated experimentation by professional magician Kim Wist.

This is not merely a novelty trick. Kim Wist has refined this pass for his actual performances, providing a practical solution to the elusive “holy grail” of sleights: the One-Handed Pass.

The KW Pass bears similarities to a Jack Miller pass that was developed but never published around 70 years ago.

Running time: 22 minutes
