Sly Kly Design Carbon Fiber Playing Cards

There are really only two producers of carbon fiber playing cards, Sly Kly and Home Run Games.I initially discovered the cards produced by HRG but decided to forgo them for the Sly Kly cards for two reasons.1. HRG clearly decided to brand the ace of spades with the company name, a practice I absolutely despise.2. Sly Kly offered a metal case for the cards whereas HRG did not.Upon receiving the cards I realized that these cards are indeed branded just like the HRG cards including the jokers.The aluminum case itself does not seem particularly well designed as the "flap" keeping it closed seems to open itself up with any amount of gravitational force which can cause the cards to spill out.The cards themselves have nice coloring and are a little hard to shuffle at first but have none of the usual problems reported with other carbon fiber cards (carbon splinters, blistered ink).Overall I would have been happy with these cards had they not been so obnoxiously branded.

I'm a carbon fiber nut so chances are, I'm going to love anything made from the stuff. As far as quality goes: awesome. If you're going to be spending so much money on a deck of playing cards you expect them to last for a LONG time and these cards deliver.If you have the money to spend on premium cards, these are definitely the ones to get.
