The magician takes a length of rope and ties it into four loops. The loops can be displayed across the hands like handcuffs, as per the illustration. A pair of scissors is introduced and the magicain cuts each loop open and then trims the ends. The rope is definitely cut into five different pieces. The magician wraps the rope around the hand and then when unfurled, the rope is completely restored! This is a great trick that came from the late Dr. Harlan Tarbell.
