Be careful, unless they were properly stored they may have soaked up moisture.

Thats what I was thinking. I usually just buy as much as I need for a project so I dont have a bunch of them laying around not being used.

They still dont work that great. The coating just falls off when you start welding and it falls in the seam and just ****s everything up. It'l make you cuss

If there that old I wouldn't use them for anything important. If your just making temporary stuff or dont need much strength use them then. Or if you got one of those friends that thinks hes God's gift to welding when he starts talking about how he can weld better than anyone give him one of those sticks and tell him to prove it.
