I know, I know. Very, very "oldschool" but I just love the routine. Im thinking of buying a set very soon. I just cant decide weither to get the 3 pack (white to black to red) or just the good old fashioned 2 pack (white to black)

Interested to hear peoples thoughts, opinions, notes on this literal "classic" of magic.

It really depends on the routine you want to do. Figure out the routine first and then get the knives

Get Ascanio's book and check out Tarbell, Volume 7. For a macabre routine, check out Robert E. Neale's Blood Knive routine in This is Not a Book.
 
I've been checking out a lot of stuff on youtube lately. I like Bill Malone and Daryl's routines a lot. I like Pop Haydn's a lot too. They all do a 2 knife routine (i'm assuming) so I guess i'll go with 2. Thanks for the reply. I'll look out for those books
