These needles were purchased to use as teaching aids in an elementary school knitting class. They're smooth and light, but strong enough to be dropped and/or squeezed hard. I'm sure they can break but I've never had a problem with them. It was great to be able to buy enough needles of the same size here. We live in the country almost 100 miles from the nearest yarn store. The price was right and the quality was great!
