What Is The Oldest Item You Still Use?

I've a Irish army helmet from the emergency years that belonged to a grand uncle of mine.
As I child, he told me stories of serving as a soldier , his own son joined the RAF and his father was a RDF.
I'm from an army family and these stories convinced me to join the army

I have the helmet after it was left to me after he died.
My youngest son this year expressed an interest in joining the army and proudly I gave the helmet to him.Tis tradition.

Off he went , a hour later he came back down to the kitchen after carefully removing the liner and finding a name printed on liner and stamped on the inside of the helmet.

It wasn't my fcukin' grand uncles name at all , apparently the lying bastard robbed it and made up the story of his army career.

Gillette Mach 3 handle. Got it in 1999. Still going strong.

A prayer book.

I have a Dunlop tyre pressure gauge (still in its original tube) from the 70’s. It was my dad’s and now mine. I use it regularly, everytime I check tyre pressures on my own and my wife’s car.

I have an old saucepan that I use to boil my eggs. Family heirloom at this stage. It has no handle and is chipped all along the outside. It must be at least 20 years old and I’ve no idea why I still use it as I’ve plenty of other more viable saucepans but I just *feel* like this one cooks my eggs better. My sister looked at it the other day and said “how is that fcuking thing still on the go”.

I have an old shovel from an old road sweeper I knew, it's only had 17 new heads and 14 new handles. I've even got a picture of him with it to prove it.

My dads razor was a present for his 18th birthday - he's now 73 and still using it.

I got him a more modern one years ago but he never used it, he reacted like Mrs Doyle when she was given the TeaMaster or whatever it was called.

There's also a clock in my parents kitchen that's 150+ years old.
