Things that have withstood the test of time

In a spirit of positivity, how about things that have lasted well?
Here's a personal one: my Olds Super trumpet made in 1934, which I bought from America via eBay several years ago. It warms my cockles to think that it was made before Count Basie went to New York (1937), and might well have been played by one of the swing musicians of that era. It's still an absolute corker to play.

Oh yes, especially personal ones that one has been honing for a long time (I've got a nice non-stainless one which I acquired, second-hand, 37 years ago, and would easily chop a finger off). I won't let anyone else near them to sharpen them. Frustrates me enormously if I have to work with someone else's rubbish knives.

It's just a hill. Get over it.
Maybe Trump should have used a few more in his tweets... although having an entire principle-less political party behind you probably helps.
Music fads come and go with each generation but classical stays popular.

It raises an interesting question as to what's the oldest thing that one regularly uses, in either domestic or work setting. I suspect mine would be the trumpet at the top of the thread.
I am not sure. You have no chance.
