Reply to This is what BIFL is really about. Not only does Lee Valley still sell the consumable blade for their old marking gauges (discontinued nearly 20 years ago), it's actually a dollar cheaper than the blade for the new model. by yboy403
I’ve just been thinking of how to sharpen mine, should they really need replaced…. Ever?

Reply to Looking for the best snow shovel? by Sherman88
In my case 30 years, I've never been able to bend it. Still has the original handle. I'm sure there are cheep ones out there, I forget what I paid, but purchased on for my son when he first moved out and it was around $30 and that was 10 years ago. I've lost track of all the other shovels I owned, none lasted more than 10 years. The shovel is aluminum so it cannot rust. Go to a store and check one out.

I was looking at the reviews in Amazon, is it easily bent or rust quickly?

Ob my gosh I have been wondering this same thing, my dad and stepmom had these really freaking nice king sized pillows I LOVED, but have no idea the brand or the name, and it's been bothering me for god knows how long. Dad passed and I now have no way of contacting the step mom

Latex like the stuff they put in gloves? That doesn’t sound as comfy as say a down pillow. What’s so great about it

I have no idea what is trendy anymore, so I was avoiding that, but yeah, they aren't my preference.

I second this. I live in Colorado and have used mine the last 7 years, still going strong.

African greys are one of those long-lived species that can live 70 years or more.

Is it made by the mattress company? Good for back sleepers?

I have a hard time finding good pillows, I came across some perfect ones at Marshalls for like $30. Also I don't think pillows are a great BIFL item, they get gross after awhile.

not the mypillow guy, but the second most firm pillow there made my headaches go away. the firmest one makes them worse. had some bamboo 95% off nonsense memory foam pillows from wayfair at one point that were nice long enough for me to toss out my trusty pillows, then caused headaches. in conclusion, make sleep great again.
