If your thinking eating noodles is going to be a blast with these awesome light sabers.. your wrong. The sticks don't have any grip so the noodles just slid off. I've been eating with chop sticks all my life and I was a bit let down. But, hey it's fun to play with and they look cool.. And I guess you can say with certainty this would be more of a collector's item.

I love the idea of lightsaber chopsticks but look before you leap here. These are the smoothest plastic chopsticks I've ever used and it's nearly impossible to eat with these. They're a little top heavy and much, much too slippery for regular eating. Forget about noodles.

They look neat for some special occasions though, so if you stir fry some really sticky rice and you can actually use them, they're kind of cool.

Bought this as a fun Christmas gift for my brother-in-law. He loves them and uses them all the time. Durable, easy to clean. He loves that they are two sizes.

other than the fact that balance seems to be an issue in operating these as chopsticks... but that i'm sure would be difficult to overcome, they're perfect.

These chop sticks are fabulous! Light weight, and beautifully crafted! The StarWars resting blocks are a marvel unto them selves.
These great chop stick can be used to eat your favorite chinese meal, snack on your favorite chips (like cheeto's) at work, while
keeping your hands clean. they can be used for 10 inch or larger action figures, for fun play times.
And they can also be used for mini saber duels by those avid Start Wars fans, now in their 30' and 40's..
WOOHOO!
Already contemplating a second set!

I bought these as a stocking stuffer for my Star Wars loving fiance. I usually use the green ones and he uses the red ones (as they are bigger). They are a super cute way to eat sushi and also fun to have mini battles after the sushi is finished. My only discrepency is that the plastic they are made out of is not so great. Often times the rolls slip out. Overall though we really dig them.

Side note: These are listed as a toy, which I found amusing, especially since they ask you to rate the educational value... odd. I guess these are pretty educational chop sticks ;P

Pros: Different than the average wooden chopsticks. Adds a little fun touch to eating. My girlfriend and I like to go to our Pho place and use them...we usually get a few odd looks.

Cons: Since they are plastic, they are a little harder to eat with. If you're not good with wooden chopsticks then you'll have a problem using these.

I would agree with some folks that it would be hard to eat noodles with this particular set of chopsticks. However the conversational and sheer fun of this product out weights that small problem.
