Any advantage to the large wallet over the small? Anything that can only be done with large, thanks?

I have the small plus wallet. Currency must be folded in it, it cannot sit flat. I am assuming bills do not have to be folded in the large wallet. You can fit the small wallet into a hip pocket, but it is really for a jacket and still looks and acts like a pocket secretary wallet. Both have all the same features and can do all the same stuff ( palm and no palm card to wallet, peek device and holdout) . If given the choice now, I would go with the large. I hope this helps.

I have the large one and definitely recommend it, especially if you want to carry bank notes in it (I don't, by the way). Also the extra height makes it easier to load and get out of your pocket.

I have the large wallet and carry it in my left hand hip pocket (my regular wallet in my right, my stockholder on my left coat pccket) pocket management is a must for every magician. I think I will make up a visual chart of a normal gentleman's clothes and annotate pocket areas.

I guess I'm the lone holdout for the small version....I have it and it works better for me the way I carry it; which can be in a hip pocket, a coat pocket or my man purse (most men outside the US know what this is, for lack of a better term)....I'll admit that I can't carry my checkbook in it, but I don't use checks for the most part anyway. If I need a check, I keep a couple folded up in one of the flaps for use. It's all about space to me and the smaller version is easier to pack as a regular every day prop readt to go.
What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about? 
My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums.

Been thinking about getting the small too. How does it fit in the hip pocket? The only thing holding me back is the size.

What is the need to keep currency folded? I'm interested in the small but I don't want to make a mistake if somehow there is a need for unfolded bills...

If I used mine as an everyday wallet I'd want to keep my notes unfolded so that I didn't have to pull out the whole batch if I needed one.

Loving my large with the wonder unit. It's really not THAT large or overbearing. So glad I didn't go for the small. I'm sure it's great but this is like the length of a checkbook, not bad at all

I agree... Bigger is Better!
I bought the small wallet first, but quickly realized that it sat down deeper in my coat jacket pocket than I liked, and wasn't as easy to load as I had hoped. I ended up happier with the large wallet.

Hi,
for those of you who already owe the JOL plus wallet (small or large doesn't matter), I have a question and that I would like to ask the helpful peoples here 
Is it possible, for me to still do the card-to-sealed-envelope-in-wallet effect, with the wallet in my jean's back pocket? Its really uncommon to wear a coat or jacket in my country. From reading forums and research, I understand that the card CAN be loaded while the JOL plus wallet is in the back/hip pocket. But is the card-in-seal-envelope feature still available if I use my backpocket?
any reply will be appreciated

Yes, the sealed envelope feature uses the normal load.

Yes, you can put the plus wallet in your back pocket.
But I think it is too large for normal jeans and easy stealed for theaves,haha.
Mr.O'connell has a hip pocket wallet for car to wallet effect, but I'm not sure if it can be used with an envelope.
