I bought a pair like these and nothing has gone wrong with them. I don't really hit things that hard but hard enough, I also don't really use it to hit stuff but it is perfect for demonstrations, the dragon sort of disappeared from overuse but it looked ok anyways, it has a nice sound when you hit something, like the kind you hear in the old Bruce Lee movies somewhat like a ''pack!'' sound especially with an echoed place x), overall its very good and very close to being real nunchucks if it wasn't for the hollow plastic tubing and the foam.

This is a very good product, it actually came in time too, we were about to practice self defense techniques in Aikido haha, overall, perfect, the yellow safety color makes it extremely safe to work with.

This is a really good product. I just starting using nunchaku, although I wish there was a 12'' version and the chain was a little longer they are still pretty good, I let my nephew use them to since the foam keeps it safe.
