I believe I took it out once. After that, I stored it in a dark place. As you can see from the photos, the handle has a slight bend, but it doesn't affect its use. When packing, I may adjust the handle to fit inside the bag, but only to the extent that it doesn't lose its shape. Please understand. There were reviews on SHEIN saying that penlights and other items fit perfectly, so it's also recommended for concerts and the like. Color: Brown系 (Brown-based) Accessories: None Stains/Tears: None
