From the Manufacturer

Minecraft is one of today's hottest video games, allowing players to create the worlds of their imagination. Think Geek brings some of the creations of the game out of the computer and into the real world with their new Minecraft Foam Weapons, including the Pick Axe and the Sword. Made of EVA foam, these weapons combine the in-game 8-bit look with the heft of a real blunt force object.

Product Description

You're in a meeting. You need to escape. You need your freedom! Sadly, escaping a meeting isn't the same as getting away from Zombies and Creepers. You can't just tunnel your way out... Or maybe you could if you just had the Minecraft Foam Pickaxe!Replicating the stone pickaxe from Minecraft (data value 274 to be precise), the Minecraft Foam Pickaxe is an officially licensed Minecraft product. Okay, so a foam pickaxe is probably not going to bash through solid rock (or even soggy drywall for that matter), but with this baby in your hand you'll feel like you can. And after all, isn't it more important to have the confidence that you could smash things when you're trapped in a room with crazy people?The Minecraft Foam Pickaxe is made from sturdy EVA foam, which means that unlike the stone pickaxe in the game, the Minecraft Foam Pickaxe will withstand far more than 132 uses. EVA makes the Minecraft Foam Pickaxe a sturdy tool, hefty yet with enough cushion that you'll feel comfortable bashing a wide variety of materials. And of course, this is an officially licensed Minecraft product, which means you're making Notch happy too.

Excellent product, looks just like the real(digital) thing! Even though it's made of "foam", it's quite durable. I wouldn't recommend having a pickaxe fight with a friend but it's good for a few bonks, definitely. Makes an excellent gift for Minecraft-lovers. (Hint Hint girlfriends everywhere!)

Very Durable, and fun to make videos with and just really cool to have! Just do not try to mine real objects with it, as it may break :P
