100 year warranty on everything they sell: www.saddlebackleather.com
My waterbag makes that Filson look kinda cheap like they cut some corners during the design phase. ;)
Patagonia warranties for life. Just sayin'.
That bag looks nice. I heard about them a couple years ago and now I remember why I got turned off, the dude's story is so fucking pompous. http://www.saddlebackleather.com/the-storyQuote:

But seriously, I picked up a utility wallet and heritage belt from Tanner Goods a while ago. I may end up replacing the wallet in a couple of decades but the belt will be included in my will. www.tannergoods.com

and my Toyota...275K miles and still going strong.
Those aren't the exact Bean boots, I couldn't find an image. But the Sorels do look good. They used to be made in Canada, but Columbia bought them and now they're made in China. Bean boots are made in Maine. Advantage Bean.
Zwilling chef knife, my Weber grill plus the Green Egg and a 99 cent magnetic bottle opener.

I've had that saw for 11 years - stihls kick it's ass - that saw has no high end - it is easy to start and dependableQuote:

Sthil make home owner/rancher and pro saws all of which are orange and indistinguishable unless you know the models but if you ever get them together its obvious which saw is putting out the HP
I totally understand where Iceman is coming from. In fact, just this week I was thinking the same. I have a heavy duty SS natural gas grill. The regulator was replaced and for some reason flame and temp just kept not putting out the BTU's. I thought after multiple rebuilds it was time to trash it, Until I went shopping for a new one and all the new shit was thin and junky compared to this tank. So $100 later and some elbow grease the old girl is firing like a rolls royce jet motor and cranking out the heat again. Should last me into the forseable future. So with that lesson learned I bought new chainsaw this week and opted for the Stihl MS 261 pro model over the MS 291 which the dealer kept pushing since I wasnt a professional by any means. That being said the overall build quality for $150 more was night and day over the consumer saw and I figure it will last the rest of my wood cutting days, unless some type of lightsaber type chainsaw is invented that weigh 1 lb comes out. Also was waffling on the purchase a Beretta perennial SVIII over under and pulled that trigger too, since why the fuck not. It the wallet was cracked open I might as well buy the last over under also. Figure its a keeper and the kids will want it or at the least get some good $$ out of it. Yup one of the weeks that cost $$ but buying good shit at my age means amortizing it over multiple years and not wanting throw away crap.
Shun Higo Nokami gentleman's knife. As long as it doesn't get lost, I expect it to go a couple generations. Beautiful thing.

My Whites were the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread. Throw them into the incinerator with me when the time comes.Quote:

After seeing what my parents are going through now with their slate roof, prepare to spend many hours a summer tracing down leaks in a decade or two.Quote:

^^^ yeah I wanted to say something about the slate roofs but I didn't want to be "that guy".
They crack like potato chips when you walk on them.
Slate is about as durable as cedar, should have gone with metal if you needed something to last 50 years.
Its been on for 2 decades, and I'm still waiting for a leak--what would make it more prone to leaking than any other roof? It's been thru one east coast Cat 1 hurricane (Irene), and many nor'easters that have ripped the asphalt shingles off other homes in the hood. And I walk on it 2X a year to clean the gutters and stuff.
If your parents shingles end up in the driveway its probably because they used the wrong nails (galvanized), and/or crappy PA slate. Both were common during the 30-40's war years.
I bought my Sorel Cariboos in the Avon Walmart in 1991 (still made in Canada then.) Other than the initial waterproofing treatment with some silicone spray and replacing the felt liner last year I've done zero maintenance on them. Still have nearly full treadlife too. Bomber snow boot for sure.Quote:

Well that is cool and all, you're roof is a outlier and as long as you step on the edges and not the middle of the slate they should not break. Most of the ones I've dealt with must be the crappy PA slate.Quote:

Barn has a metal roof too with a 9/12 pitch - snow comes sliding off that thing like a luge without brakes. Hoping to not have to mess with either roof for the rest of my lifetime.Quote:

Honda element. Maintained properly keep shiny side up it'll last longer than you. Just serviced customers 03 with 443115 on it.

My whites/wescos lasted ~5 years tops before they were unable to rebuild. That is rebuilding/resoling every 1-2 seasons.Quote:
