How durable is the Lock Sculpta? - Dreadlocks FAQ's
Made of hardened surgical steel the Lock Scupta is pretty durable. It unlikely you'll ever have it bend or break in your dreads. We have heard a couple accounts where the handle and the hook slid apart. If this happens just let us know we'll be glad to exchange it for you. If you wanna MacGyver it all you need is a few drops of super glue...works like a charm. Since they are quite durable you'll probably only need one the whole time you have your dreads but I can tell you it's stupid-convenient to have one for the car and one for the bathroom. It's also nice to have a backup should you misplace it. (Is my dependency that obvious?)
