From a distance, the wand looks okay. However, up close the grip around the middle part is cut
somewhat improperly and overlaps the silver tips at a diagonal. Additionally, the middle of the
wand is much thicker than the tips, which gets more noticeable the closer you are. The balance is
good and works well for Vernon's spin move, but I can't give this a great rating from that alone.
Overall, I would have preferred a wand with the same silver tips, but made from finished
wood in the middle instead of the thick, oddly cut rubbery grip. For the price, I expected better
quality.
