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
Estwing hammers. Not excessively expensive, but the kind of hammer you buy for life.
Used to be great now their is a lot better options most I’ve seen lately are no longer solid construction. They really seemed to only be good because their brand had no real competition long ago. Now there are better options.
Are there hammers you don’t buy for life?
Plenty
Those cheaply made in china plastic handle one, it will break and fling itself across the room.
