(!buyitforlife)

So the idea of "buy it for life" is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment

What are some of the top items you recommend for this?

A scythe. It will take you a lifetime to wear through that blade. Frequent sharpening necessary, but that gives you a chance to catch your breath.

I've been reading posts like this and this is the first time I've seen scythe. Aside from collecting people's souls, are there any practical uses for them in an urban setting?

Only if you have a yard that needs mowing. Then they're just it.
