The truck, the guns, the tools, the house, my hands and face...all show the wear I would expect of things that follow me through life and are used. I have few things that are pristeen and perfect. Life gives us all dents, scrapes, and scars.
Safe queens, trophies, and treasure are meant to be kept in perfect condition when possible, but they are only memories and reminders.
The things I use should show that use...proudly!
The stuff that is worn to whatever degree, frequently have the best stories behind them.
