I know this isn't about one product, but snap-on is often cited here as BIFL. The interesting "for life" angle to this story is how they trap their franchisees in debt at super high numbers, effectively kneecapping local/small businesses to keep product alluringly rare/high value. A good read. I also didnt know they moved most of their manufacturing to China.
