So my tallest rods im always hitting the rod tips on walls, or something else how hard is to damage a rod tip? do you think a rod tip can take some hits like that and can be used normally?

 

i see no sign of damage there, but since is such a small piece im not sure if i should trust or not that everything is ok 

 

Im kinda ocd with mu fishing stuff ... i take care very well but hitting the tips on rods is something out of my control lol

Run a Qtip over it.  If anything is wrong you will know.

Yea, just look close at the tip insert. Q-tip is good test to see (feel) if it's chipped.

 

Looking with a magnifying glass works too.

Detected a little bump around the guide (circle) but outside the guide on the tip, as long as is not on the circle (inside guide) it should be fine i believe not exactly what those small bumps are since it looks like its metal around the tip

Likely excess glue for the insert on the guide's metal frame. Common.

Rod sleeves are cheap, and will save you a headache. 

 

I'm a klutz, so I go one step further and put a rod tip cover into the top all my rod sleeves. 

I don’t allow my rods tips to freely dangle around at home or during transport. 
 

Talk about babying equipment, lol. Guilty as charged, lol.

No offense, but yes it is.
