They are stamped to a caliper and thickness that facilitates classic moves like bottom and center dealing. They are also embossed to a depth that does not break down the structural integrity of the card, yet still allows each card to breathe properly, thereby reducing the gum-up and hangers often caused by atmospheric conditions, finger moisture, and contaminants.
Each card is also traditionally cut which facilitates many moves and shuffles used by performers and serious card players.
The Traditional Cut Process
Unlike most of the cards manufactured today, the cutting blade used in traditionally cut cards starts at the face of each card and punches through to its back. As a result, a sharp edge is created on the backside of each card and a rounded edge, which facilitates a flawless weave during each shuffle, is formed on the card's face.
Traditionally cut cards ensure that card players and magicians can easily interlace the cards to produce crisp, clean shuffles, especially with some of the more intricate shuffling techniques like the one-handed shuffle and the faro shuffle, both in-hand, and on the table.
For over 100 years traditional card cutting was the norm, but the process was changed about fifteen years ago. Casinos demand traditionally cut cards, and so should magicians and serious card players. You will be amazed at the difference between these cards and ones sold at normal retail outlets.
If you demand the very best, be sure to look for the Gold Seal and gold label certifying that your deck is "Traditionally Cut for the Professional."

The Deck
The deck features standard Bicycle faces and Bicycle Rider backs, and includes two traditional matching Jokers, as well as a blank card with the Rider back to use in reverse fans or magic routines. Performers of gambling-related acts will also find the blank card useful as a cut-card when performing Greek-deals and other moves requiring a nondescript bottom card.
