Note: There are still shave-ready new razors available in PIF No. 11.
Another donation from @Phil Harmonica to the cause. This much sort after shave-ready straight razor has been hand crafted in a far-off and exotic land. After honing it was finished on the naked thighs of a young virgin girl and comes in an exquisite timber case finely crafted by the overly protective mother of that young virgin girl. This is definitely a razor that many would desire to add to their collection.

To win this PIF, just post "I'm in" with your guess of the number. [e.g., I'm in 15]. First to guess the correct number will win. If there is no winner by the close of this PIF, I will keep this razor for myself - it is that good. It is even worth is just for the case.
If you find that this SR is not for you, all I ask is that you return the razor to me. I will then refresh the blade's edge and PIF it to another member.
