This Brass Keychain is pretty sturdy. I was actually surprised by the weight and the quality.  What can I say. It's a Tigger Keychain. So far I had it for over a year and it's still in one piece. Some of the brass is chipping off, but that is to be expected carrying it around. I just mention that just in case someone wanted to give it to small kids. I think it would be too hard for someone under 6. Just about any kid who would swing it around. This thing WILL hurt if you get hit with it... But that's about it. I love it, and glad I got it. Oh, and if you loose your keys a lot, this will make it a little harder, since it's a pretty decent size.
