(More customer reviews)Okay, from a purely asthetic perspective, this staff is awesome. It's elegant, simple, yet complicated, not to mention creative and evocative. It actually looks like a magician might carry it without sneering inwardly at himself. Also, the balance is quite easy to find, about 1/4 (mebbe more) from the top. So, excellent!
The actual implementation of the staff, though, is irritating. Shipping over the web may not be the best choice... when the item arrived, despite careful packaging, several paint chips had come off around the haft. There seems to be some sort of red paint underneath. The haft itself, is also a little loose, enough to be noticable, but not enough to repair without a lot of trouble- ie taking the whole thing off, and reattaching. My final quibble, is that the staff part itself (wood) is low quality, appearing in feel to be, in fact, a broomstick, although maybe even lighter. While this offsets the heavy metal top... i dunno, it won't exactly hold together if you intend to swing it at another staff.
So, brilliant design... somewhat flawed execution.
