This is Star, machined metal halves that part in one exact order. Hanayama's tricky Star brainteaser consists of an irregular six-pointed star caught within a snake-shaped loop. Taking it apart is the puzzle; putting it back is the second one.

One of the first cast metal puzzles released by Hanayama, the Star brainteaser continues to entertain puzzlers.
Once you've freed the star from the loop, can you reassemble the puzzle?
This 4.7'' x 3.07'' x 1.8'' cast metal puzzle designed by Akio Kamei is considered difficulty level 3 (moderate).
Rated level 3 on our six-step ladder, so you know the sit before you start.

Enjoyed the puzzle but my mom ruined it...

Was confused on how to solve it at first. Before I could really start it, I let my mom take a look. When I read the paper to her she solved it immediately. What lesson did I learn from this? Solve the puzzle before sharing it.

Hard on the first solution. Once memorized its a 1 step puzzle though.

Challenging enough, yet not too hard

Challenging enough, yet not too hard. Love it! Even still fun to do when you know how you do it. Great quality, though it does smell like pennies. Doesn’t bother us.
