What is the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?

Just wondering what passes the test of time? I personally have an old Casio watch and if you count fruit trees, those are pretty old too.
An old generic pocket knife I bought in a mall shop back in 2001.

I'm in my 40s now, so I guess my body.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I have a 100 year old porcelain doll. Her name is Agnes, she has real human hair and is definitely cursed. Does that count?
Other than that, I have a pre-WW2 windup clock that still works perfectly. It's a solid steel brick.

Gem razors ftw!

I can’t believe how automatic it is!

My apartment is from 1865 but "own" is a little tenuous... Beyond that it's probably down to probably 20 year old cutlery or my tv stand which is actually a crate that's around 100 years old

I have a mix of hand tools like scrwdrivers, wrenches, and hammers inherited from my father in law who said some were from back in the 60s that I use as needed.
They are still in decent shape so they get put to good use regularly to make up for being left in a closet for a few decades.

My dick. I've used that every day since I was born.
The dresser in my bedroom was my dad's and it's older than me. I think it's around 50 years old.

I have a Stanley mug, bought it in 96 when I was working in construction. It's been kicked off scaffolding more times than I can count.
Used so much that the green started coming off ten+ years ago. So I sanded it off and it now has a brushed stainless look.
The lip cover has been gone for at least 15 years, worked well when it was there though. The mug is far too big to fit in any cup holder and has been tossed around mercilessly in every truck I have ever owned without spilling a drop up until the day it broke off.
The lid has chew marks where sharp puppy teeth of my long dead forever friend had himself a munch.
I can't see ever replacing it and I don't see it ever breaking to the point I'll need to.
I also have a knife in the running that would fit the question.

Straight razor or safety?

My "TV" is a (modern) 36" LCD computer monitor hooked to a 2011 Dell Latitude E6400.
My washing machine is a workhorse from 1997. Can't say I use it daily but multiple times per week.
Some of the wiring in my house is still original from '55, if that counts.
Might wanna have that wiring in your house checked out, that 50s wiring can be a little on the sketchy side.

We have a formica dining table made in the 50s, I think. It looks cool, is in great shape, and I love spotting them in older movies.

My keyboard is almost middle aged
IBM Model M. I bought 3 at a garage sale in the late 90s, 1 for use 2 for backups, and I've never needed the backups

AFAIK, it's only two outlets on the far end of the house. The only things I have plugged into them are some lamps (with LED bulbs) and phone chargers. The rest of the house was re-wired in ~2013 or so. Not sure why previous owner didn't do those last few outlets, but at least the rest of the house is up to code.

wrote last edited by [email protected]When my grandma passed away, we had to sell the family farm that had been in the family since the 1930s. While mounting the massive undertaking of cleaning out 100 years of stuff from 2 houses and 3 barns, I stumbled upon 2 old wooden cheese boxes being used to store screws from a brand called Blue Ribbon Cheese. I googled it and that was how Pabst Blue Ribbon survived prohibition. One sits in my sock drawer with a few pocket knives for me to choose from each morning.
I don't use it daily, but I also have a 3 foot long homemade level with my great grandfather's initials carved in it. He died in the 1950s but it could be older than that.
