The White Lions Tour Edition is the final version of the White Lions. David has now perfected it with loads of hidden features for you to discover, making it a great deck for the seasoned professional and beginner. During his entire North American tour David has only used these, and it is by far his favorite deck for performing. Breathtaking in its simplicity, the Black Edition is one of four beautiful additions to the White Lions family.

As the numerous online reviews attest to, White Lions are famous for the way they handle. This will be evident the moment they will touch your hands. Their premium texture and incredible durability make them perfect for performing or practicing.

The box design includes silver foil stamping, detailed embossing, and a beautiful matte white finish. The cards themselves are printed on the highest quality stock to produce a feel so good you don't want to put them down.

Look for the topics on this forum about the White Lions earlier editions.  I know that the marking system was covered pretty extensively and I don't think it changed all that much from the earlier models.

Here's a hint, if all else fails - the White Lions, like a lot of marked decks, will fail the riffle test.  Sort the deck out by suit, then restack them together in suit groups and give the deck a riffle.  You'll notice while some areas of the card back will change a bit from card to card all the way through the riffle to show you where the values are marked, there will be an area of the card back that changes exactly three times while you're riffling - that's where you'll find the indicators for the suit.  If it's where I think it is, it's in the upper left/bottom right corners of the back and not too hard to spot.  That's how I discovered the markings on the Black Lions.
