A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

If you need something a bit more bulletproof, Kershaw makes a fantastic set of general purpose scissors. They come apart without tools for cleaning and sharpening and it’s proper knife steel as well.
I have Wusthof scissors that come apart without tools also. I think it’s common in higher end kitchen shears because you’ll need to clean them pretty thoroughly and sharpen periodically.
Thanks anon, I love my Kershaw pocket knives, but never thought of them for scissors.
