Karson Two-Hole Wrist Chopper. Owen Magic Supreme, ca. 1990s
Finely made hardwood stocks with metal blade. The blade, with two circular openings, is shown and may be examined. A spectator places both wrists through the stocks, which are secured; handcuffs may be added for effect. The blade is then driven downward, apparently passing through the spectator’s wrists. Stocks are opened to show the interior empty; spectator unharmed. Recently restored to its original beauty by Paul Lembo. Hallmarked.
