Thumb Cut

by
Unattributed CardistryUnattributed Cardistry

A thumb cut is a simple one-handed cardistry cut where the thumb lifts or pushes a packet of cards away from the deck, separating it from the main packet. The packet is then moved, rotated, or dropped back to complete the cut. This is one of the moves that is most affected by your hand size. If you are having trouble pulling this move off, try doing it with 3/4 of the deck.
