Those two Puma SR were shop showcase ones. They were normally produced but not finished. Instead og making the thread and honing them, the producers stamped a message on the backside of the blade saying " not for use". So the retailer can let the customer manipulate them with a minimum risk of cut, and they avoid to find them beeing stolen.
I made them shave-ready two days ago.
Badger brush Mühle (mill in german) and soap "la savonnière du Moulin" (the mill soapfactory) :D/CENTER]
