11 Of The Most Expensive Items Made In The USA | So Expensive Marathon | Business Insider

[@gregorybower2759]

Stetson is worthr the cost because they are long lasting and durable, my grandfather bought one in the 50's and daily wore it, passed it to my dad who wore it regularly and i own it now and it still holds up in the rain all day long.

[@xxitz_pr0gxx631]

[@sirjames7800]

​@kennya5165 if it's an authentic hat then it should with no worries. Because there's alot of hella fakes.

[@jeffbguarino]

I would never wear that. I don't even wear a cap. I do wear balaclavas though and toques but that is to stay warm. How do you keep your ears from freezing wearing a Stetson ? There was an Indian guy at work I was training and he was using a flimsy scarf to protect his face and I told him he had to take off his turban and wear a balaclava or get an extra large balaclava and put it over top of his turban. I know you can buy these large ones. I know he was going to freeze his nose off when it got down to -35. Although with the hat you can always put it on top of the balaclava I guess. I usually use a balaclava and then flip up two hoodies on top to cut the wind. I work on trains, driving them etc. I saw a guy once from Calgary I think in Walmart and he had this huge brimmed hat on and looked like an alien standing there. The second generation Indians in Canada lose their turbans because they know what everyone else thinks.

[@gregorybower2759]

@jeffbguarino I live in the south, NC, actually, and I can count on 1 hand how many times it's gotten to single digit temps in my life. And when it gets cold I'll just wear a tobogan/beanie. I'm sure others have other solutions, but thats my personal answer.

[@Maddolis]

The skill of the pianist will be responsible for 90% of the sound but Steinways have their reputation for a reason. I was lucky enough to perform an hour of difficult repertoire on a new Steinway D (pieces that really tested the piano in all registers, all timbres) and it's really something else. You can strike a single note on a Steinway D in a concert hall and just be mesmerized by its sound, from the initial attack transient through to the end of its tail. The best analogy I could probably come up with is that feeling of driving your car just after it's been tuned up, or perhaps test driving a really nice luxury vehicle - you're going through the same motions but everything's just more responsive and just feels right!

[@ontopofbottom]

Yeah, I’ve played one. Not worth the money unless you’re mega mega rich, or if it’s for a theater and is being paid for by a company. For individual use, there’s rarely any justification for getting one.

[@Maddolis]

@@ontopofbottom Yes absolutely. I was lucky as a teenager to be in close with Yamaha with my family (playing in a few of their fancy Asia/Oceania concerts with siblings) so we got a great deal on a new C5 for somewhere in the $30k AUD range (-they retailed for $51k then, I think around 61 now) and I absolutely love them. Played plenty of C7s but, if one is serious and middle class/can afford one, I'd always recommend the Yamaha C3-C5 range. Plenty of amazing samples nowadays too, I mostly use NI's The Grandeur (a Steinway D sample) as my go-to but with Pianoteq, Keyscape (C7) and a hundred other fine examples, one can record nice sounds for cheap nowadays! Only problem with the sampled stuff is it's harder to get the equipment to half-pedal, which is absolutely essential... though Pianoteq (among others) have sympathetic resonance now which is amazing!

[@ontopofbottom]

@@Maddolis yeah they’re definitely solid pianos. Work with Yamaha, so there’s the employee discount of 46% off for all products once a year. Including baby grand pianos and everything else. Haven’t ever purchased one, but I’ve gotten to play it a few times. Personally I’m just too cheap to buy a piano that expensive, but they are definitely solid pianos.

[@Maddolis]

@@ontopofbottom Oh awesome! I taught for them a good few years ago but didn't take advantage of any of the employee discounts. No chance I could afford one, a $4.5k synth would be the biggest musical purchase I've ever been able to sway!

Damascus definitely looks cool and does have desirable properties but I think too many people get caught up in the idea of it being magical somehow and forget that you dont *need* a blade to be Damascus to be very good blade.

[@FraserChapman]

Exactly - also the type of steel is hardly ever mentioned with damascus. Sure it looks pretty - but I'd rather CPM-M4, etc, than some intricate "whatever" damascus on basically any knife I'd use.

[@picklewiickle.1583]

not damascus though mate. damascus has visible Crystalline molecular grains structure

[@buttpub]

is not a Damascus blade

[@housecapital2199]

Pattern welded / Damascus has no real advantage over modern steels, it is literally just aesthetic. Back thousands of years ago layering and folding the steel helped forge out impurities that were present in small batch crucible steel, and break up the crystalline structure. Modern steels are typically much more pure and already come out of the factory rolled down from huge bars. If anything a single steel blade will be better for any knife meant to be used because the pattern welding introduces differential stresses and flaws.

The U.S. Cavalry still uses the Stetson as well as the different Services Drill Sergeants!

[@stevepotfora7461]

Good to know, and there is no reason for our tax dollars to go to handmade hats for the military. Another fleecing of the American taxpayer. Thank you Mustard1233

[@col.mustard1233]

Drill Sergeants, as it is part of their everyday uniform, are issued their hat, Cavalry, if they want to wear the Stetson must privately purchase their Stetson as it is not required but is a point of pride, especially to those who have earned their spurs!

we have a Steinway at work. I learnt to play Still DRE in it

My Grabdmother had a Steinway in her home in Trinidad. Whe she was 80 she came here to America to live with my mom. She died at 96. When we went back to her home in Trinidad after her death the termites had eaten the legs. It was in total disrepair.

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

Yes? And then?

[@wapiti3750]

She didn't tear it apart and use the wood for a toboggan did she?! Sorry, I had to get that bad joke in! I had a great great aunt who retired in 1940 and collected a Social Security check until 1985. She was 110 when she finally died. She thought she was living in high cotton getting a $26.00 check every month! She had a second hand Steinway in her home for years and years. After COLA increases started kicking in around 1975 she began to receive slightly higher SSA benefits if inflation increased. She used to complain to my grandma that getting it tuned in the late 1970s cost her almost as much as the used piano cost in the first place when she bought it in the 1930s.

You can get a more pure lab grown diamond for under $1000 You want a dirty floor stone or a perfect lab stone? Mined diamonds, which are easy to get and are literally the most common mineral on earth hurt the environment too.

[@blackoak4978]

Damascus knives aren't inherently stronger or sharper. That is a myth. They can take two nearly identical steels, layer and process them, then etch and stain them to look like a knife with very different steels. The strength is in the choice of steel, and the sharpness is in the skill of the knife maker. You could get a stronger, more reliable knife by taking a harder, high carbon steel and sandwiching it between two sheets of milder steel. No Damascus pattern necessary. The harder steel will keep an edge longer, while the milder steel will keep it flexible and support the harder steel edge against chopping Damascus is about aesthetics, not quality

I have trouble deciding what's more decadent... Rappers measuring their talent in gold around their necks or people snapping off both claws of crabs, leaving them to figure out how to survive.

Very intelligent observation. By virtue of your superior intellect, you are hereby hired at the starting wage of $775,000 per annum for being the smartest person in the room.

I used to think bunkers and preparing for some crazy incident to happen was nuts. Didn’t (and still don’t) want to live in fear. However, as I’ve gotten older, and seeing the things happening in this country and globally , I’ve come to see that being prepared for things isn’t crazy at all. Im not rich so I can’t afford some ridiculous bunker like in this video but everyone should have something set aside in case of a long power outage or another pandemic. Having food stored isn’t crazy. Having a plan to protect your family isn’t crazy. I look at things much differently now. Also, the best thing for the average Joe to know how to do is simply grow your own food…. Or at the very minimum know how to do it. Most people wouldn’t know how to do that, or process a deer or cow if needed. Remember… if things go badly you won’t have KZbin to show you shit. 😂
