My knives.
For a moment, or a second, the pinched expressions of the cynical, world-weary, throat-cutting, miserable bastards we've all had to become disappears, when we're confronted with something as simple as a plate of food. - Bourdaino

Many have mentioned some of my favorites but one gadget I would repurchase if lost is the pigtail flipper. Turns me into a magician with a magic wand.

One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.
i used to make those. Made a giant one for my dad so he could flip Elk and bear roasts. It was forged all out of mild steel and I carved the steel handle into the head of an eagle. I also made one out of a 200 year old lightening rod once upon a time. Wish I still had that one. It's in a good home now though.
I haven't lived the life I wanted, just the lives I needed too at the time.
My nearly twenty year old mundial carving fork. I did a trade school cookery subject as a high school elective, and this is the only piece of kit I still have from it. Rosewood handle (that I'll replace one day), light, thin, sharp and tough. Not awesome for actual carving, but I use it for cooking and plating everyday. Not. High end fork at all - I bought it when I was fourteen.
Also my bbq tweezers. 35 cm, fine tip tweezers. Long and tough, just for chargrill work.
OXO tongs, other than knives and pans, there is little else I can do without.
