Sometimes I will use something and realize I've owned it forever. It's a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.

What's your record?

Not as long as you, but I've had my wireless earbuds for around four years now and they still get daily use. I can use them both to listen to music while I play my drums and to watch videos or listen to music while my husband is watching tv or whatever, they're fantastic.

I've been using the same pocket knife for about 15 years. Part of my EDC.

Some of my kitchen stuff, hand tools and a few ornaments come from my grandparents place. Ive been handling/seeing them my whole life. Add x years to that before me.

12 in one day and 45 days without. I think I broke those two records on the same day.
