I suspect you want to do more ... sophisticated processing in the loop than just echoing the file name. With that in mind, I suggest this slight modification to Perderabo's code:
Code:
find . -type f -mtime +$k | while read i ; do
    echo "$i"
done

I.e., for doing things with the files, you need to quote each file name as it comes through.
