Your Longest Held Possession

[ottawafm]

Here's my longest held possession. I quit smoking 3 yrs ago and I couldn't bear to let it go.

 

[Jaguwar]

It's a useful thing to have anyway, and genuine Zippo style lighter is a bit if a throwback to boot.

Probably my neck chain, ive been wearing it for 3+ years now

 

[Odin]

my gerber knife 'bout 12yr now... grips gone

My triple chained (originally one) leather wallet that I picked up in the 5th grade. Mainly holds sentimental value not from the long years with it, but because wearing it led to a unique crust punk introducing himself to me who really helped me with life in my prime years.

I got my guitar for my 17th birthday, so, almost 14 years. Its a nice little Fender acoustic and it has seen some shit, let me tell you what

I think it would be a block (yes, a block) of pitted dates I got from someone in high school as a gag Xmas gift. I joked that I would keep the gift forever, so far i've held up my promise. It's in storage right now, but i'll get a picture when I can.

I just got rid of a sleeping bag I've had for about 5yrs thought it was about time to let it go. Besides that I've been carrying around a picture my lil sis drew and when I get back to my moms house ill show her I still have it.

When I was first to set out into the big world as a 19'year old I got myself this beautiful sleeping bag. Washed it twice in those 5 years and still it's a pretty decent sleeping bag - it doesn't smell even.

There's a thing with those hollowfibers that they loose insulation capacity as you wash it. After the second wash it didn't do too good in cold wind anymore. Before it used to be like a bivuak on its own.

Isn't that just a patrol bag?

a few filled up sketchbooks that take up too much space, but I can't let them go

I'm not sure what the term "patrol bag" covers. But sure, it's nothing special, it's the Carinthia Defense 4 as they also used in Afghanistan.

my very first purchase with my own money, a swiss army knife (the original) still have the original toothpick, tweezer and needle. plus a p-38 can opener my great uncle doyle gave me from his days in nam.

I don't and won't leave with out them.

 

[Lost in transit]

I have a little stuffed monkey. His arm is kinda ripped but he's good. My dog is the most valuable thing I own.

 

[CheezusCrust]

My wallet that my grandmother gave me before she passed about 10 or so years ago. I don't even know how it stayed together all these years.

I had a full bottle of whiskey from 2006 that was a running joke with a friend, drank it after he died but still got the empty bottle somewhere.

Actually I take that back my vest was probably my longest held thing. I still have it but I don't travel with it. I posted a pic of it in another thread.
