minus-squareKongar@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·10 months agoAn American made walker mower. I don’t expect me or my son will ever need to buy another mower again. Stanley hammer 30ish years ago - still going strong. (Actually I have numerous tools I’ve had for 30+ years) Probably not for life but damn long for a tv - a Sony xbr lcd flatscreen 1080p 46” that’s 15+ years old and still going strong with daily use. A pair of bogs boots, they seem indestructible. A McDermott pool cue - about 35 years old Cast iron pans Orvis fly rod I have a Columbia winter coat that’s 15 years old and used all the time. I actually hate how long it’s lasted, I want a new one but can’t justify it. My house - it’s a good house that will certainly outlast me. I think everything else will fail before I kick the bucket. There’s a few things that’ll last for a while - but not for life.
