old as in the item's age or old describing how long I've owned it for?

first one is an enameled cast iron pot that my folks got decades ago, one of their folks had it - it's a really ugly 1960s orangish sort of red/brown. it's super old, but I've only had it for 5 or 6 years. damn thing is so ugly it just keeps getting passed down to whomever likes to cook.

2nd one is my can opener - got it in 1998, it's built like a tank. actually used to it hammer tent pegs into rocky soil when camping once.
