Problem With My Arcane Porper clip

[Joshua Robinson]

I have recently noticed that my deck boxes are being "sliced" from the top of my porper clip, how do i prevent this from happening further?

Will post pictures of what i mean soon.

They come with sand paper to sand the edges so they dont wreck your deck

mine didnt come with sandpaper and it the one with the arcane ace cut out

You should sand it anyway, take some sandpaper or even a nail file if you have to and sand the edges until they feel smooth and not scratchy.

They DO!?  Mine didn't either, but that was the first thing I did when I got it anyway, the clips come from a metal factory, so it might have some sharp edges, just rub them with a little bit of 300 grit .  Even after I open a deck, I open it with the pull so that I can keep the cello on it, it definitely helps keep the box in better shape.

The arcane porper clip has the cut out ace and the edges are shaped in a sharp way. No matter what, its going to mess up the box a little.

i took a nail file to the sharp point, everything is fine now!!!

That's good to hear!

The main reason why I don't use card clips is because I like to keep my decks in mint condition - obviously clips protect the deck more, but from what I've heard, they can damage it pretty badly too. And a lot of the decks in my collection are embossed - another thing that card clips would ruin.
Either way, I usually keep my decks at home. There's no need for me to get a card clip!

Ahh Lushbob, you must be a collector, do you perform magic?
I keep my collected decks in a glass case, they don't leave the house either, however, I have copies of a lot of my decks that I perform with, as I'm sure many others here do as well.  In this case, the card clips come in handy.  For years I just put the box in my back pocket, a deck would last me like a week.

Haha, you got it - I'm primarily a collector. I do enjoy performing magic and I love cardistry, but I don't perform it publicly. Or really, to anyone besides friends and family.
It's also difficult because I'm so careful with decks that I don't want to wear them out with magic and cardistry, so I end up using Bees, Tallys or Bicycles. I'm not complaining - they're still nice decks, regardless of their 'standard' nature. But I'd love to be able to get some custom decks to wear out.
In fact, I might be ordering a brick of Emerald Artifice soon, so I'll be able to wear out a couple of them.

I performed with basic Red and Blue riderbacks for years.  It's how I built myself as a magician.  I bought a custom every now and then, but I only took the basic bikes out to play.  Then about a year and a half ago I found white arcanes and fell in love with them, since they I've been switching around what deck I use for performance.
