Matt The Knife is a magician... but he's so much more than that!  His intense variety performance is a true blend of the very best in Magic, Sideshow, Escapes, and Mentalism.  It includes edge of your seat sword swallowing, spine tingling mind reading, death defying escapes, gripping strong man feats and a whole bunch of other amazing things that until now you probably thought were totally impossible!

It's funny, awe-inspiring, unique and completely wild!  Just the sort of thing that the audience will be talking about long after they've gone home.

He delivers with the perfect blend of high octane charisma, spot on comedic timing, and rarefied mysticism that both his clients and fans have come to expect.

Once you see him perform his witty and outlandish show you'll be left questioning your preconceived notions of both reality and what a person is truly capable of.  You'll hear the audience asking, "CAN that be real?!" and "DID he just do that?!"  But then maybe that's just how MTK came to hold a total of TWELVE Guinness World Records (tm) - for exactly the sort of things that he'll be doing live and on stage just for you!

So come and see the one and only purveyor of artful dodges, practiced deceptions, and masterful conjurations.

It's not just a show - it's an experience!




"Dear Matt:
A researcher has considered your proposal further, but has said that we have been advised that it is not medically sound for others to perform such a feat and that it is simply too dangerous. Therefore, we can not consider your latest record category despite your ability to do it."

Ann Collins,

   Guinness World Records


"Matt The Knife stands out as unique, off beat, and sometimes totally bizarre... dynamic and wonderfully refreshing... he can mesmerize an audience for hours!"

Tim O'Brien,
                                     Vice President,
                                 "Ripley's Believe It Or Not!"


"We'd even go so far as to say that Matt practices a brand of magic that'd impress Penn & Teller, what with its audience-participatory feats of mentalism and escapism... he uses a silver tongue as sharp as the blades he swallows to discuss the manipulation of cards and minds alike."

                                              -A.D. Amorosi,
                                      Philadelphia City Paper


"If you are lucky enough to participate in one of his acts, he makes YOU feel like the star!"

                      Secretary, Student Programming Board
                     Cal State University, Channel Islands


"He drew one of the biggest crowds we have ever had!  The magic he performed was amazing and kept us all at the edge of our seats while his quick wit kept us falling out of them with laughter!   Since the show, I have been approached by numerous students asking that Matt return to our campus.  He brought so much fun and excitement, I don't see how I can't bring him back!"

                                     -Bethany White,
                               Student Activities Director
                  Chattanooga State Technical Community College

"The Creative and entertaining performances he engages are simply another form of art!"

                                              PLAY Magazine


"Matt has done 3 different types of shows for the university, and each one has received rave reviews. His acts mystify, surprise and sometimes scare people, but everyone has a great time and always requests Matt to come back. I highly recommend Matt to perform at any university. The student body and the university staff will thoroughly enjoy his performances and will not leave disappointed!"

                                        -Tiny Sebastian
          Coordinator of Student Life, Greek Affairs & Student Activities

"He is recognized among the elite of magicians and performers..."

                                     -Dan Schwartz,
                                 Providence Monthly


"Audience participation played a big role in each and every one of his acts.  And since I wasn't one of the many audience members he picked throughout the night, I thought it was a great addition to the show!"

                                      -Derek Rose,
                                           Editor,
                                   Sideshow Central


"...deceptive, manipulative, intelligent, and charismatic.  He (MTK) proclaimed that he certainly possessed most of these qualities and proved this in his presentation of rapid-fire facts with a twist of humor that engrossed the audience for a half-hour over the scheduled time."
