This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool

Old Thinkpad Laptops

Mag lights

Toyota Hilux

(Off-Topic) Does anybody have “anti-planned obsolescence” communities?

Maybe where good products are discussed or recommended? Similar to r/buyitforlofe but without the shilling of socks

Edit:
