1st post PIF - Gillette Knack P4

[oldmanvoodoo]

Well, I've been lurking long enough. No better way to say hello than with a gift!

I am a straight razor user, but I rescued this Knack from an antique shop, cleaned it up a bit, then never used it. I have a Gillette birth year razor of my own in my collection, and really enjoyed the hunt for a special DE, so I thought I'd pass that joy on to another.

As a small thanks to this amazing community, I'd like to PIF a 4th quarter 1970 Gillette Knack to someone as a special birth year razor.

Gillette Knack P4 PIF

• To be eligible, the razor must be your birth year and quarter, or of someone dear to you
• To enter, just post a quick note describing your eligibility (e.g. That's my birth year!)
• I will cover shipping costs, and the Old Spice is included (1/2 full, and as pictured below)
• Winner will be selected randomly
• The PIF will end Sat 10/20 at midnight
• Good luck!

I'm only 26 but I'm trying to convert my family and friends to wet shaving. This is my uncles birth year and would be a great gift for him to get started! I'm in.

Not in, but a nice offer.

I gifted my little brother a birth year razor on his 40th birthday, very cool gift. Thanks for entering, good luck!

great intro PIF!!! ha! truly a great way to delurk!

I guess I must enter just on principle - not only is it my birth year - but my birth quarter as well! (11/15/70)

very generous!!

Wow, cool PIF.

I'm working on collecting my birthyear/quarter razors (11/1/70, got josh1970 by 14 days... hehehe), so I'm in. So far my collection of birthyear/quater is one. I managed to find a P4 black handled super speed on flea bay. Having a second P4 razor would mean I could actually call it a collection start at that point. lol

 

[oldmanvoodoo]

Not much time left on this PIF folks, enter if you can!

Good luck joshua1970 and Shave_Rat, thanks for entering

I have to be honest, I was pulling for the Texan as I was born and raised in Houston, but Random.org does not lie

The winner is ... Rob341. Congrats Rob, it's cool that the PIF is being used to lure another unsuspecting gentleman into our world! PM sent for shipping details.

Thanks everyone!

Very cool PIF. I just wish I would have been 5 years older so I could enter. I didn't even have anyone in my family that was born that year.

 

[americanarmsdealer]

That's awesome. I think this is the first time I've seen a first post PIF!! Welcome to the boards!!

Always nice to have a fellow Texan on the board!

Congrats Rob341! I'm glad it's going to help with another conversion! Good luck!

Thanks Mike for the Gillette Knack, it's my uncle's birth year and it is going to be his Christmas present! I think this year every male I give a Christmas present to is getting a razor. Great PIF, First one I have won.

Thanks
Rob
