So the idea of "buy it for life" is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment

What are some of the top items you recommend for this?

They make stubbies. These are prettyuch ubiquitous here in Canada where they're made. I've never had an issue with one except for losing bits which is on me.

I guess there's no K. They call their stubby the teeny Turner.

I'm sorry, I was looking for a very small mouse for a computer. This is a small screwdriver. Did I miss something? Just the same company that makes them?
