(See video).  Over stretching will cause it to loose shape and it will not rebound.   Please note once stretched it cannot be unstretched.   Thus, not suitable for those that like to pull at things with two hands, like to pull things apart or generally like to test limits of products.  Over time the colour may wear\/fade, especially if sanitiser\/hand creams etc are used. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe finger spikey isn't designed to be twisted back and forth on itself If twisted\/rotated it can undo at the join and generally cannot be reconnected.    This is not a product fault rather it being used not as intended\/within the products limitations.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e  Age 3+ (not suitable for under 3’s)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eExpandable carbon steel metal material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Kaiko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43814270861555,"sku":"23090","price":12.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0011\/7270\/1241\/files\/793e49f9-3237-4766-88d4-faf2ebda576c.jpg?v=1718786556","url":"https:\/\/dragonflykids.com.au\/products\/kaiko-finger-spikey","provider":"goldcoinring","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
