unlendable
Not for lending
Something unlendable cannot or should not be lent to others.
The word applies to possessions too precious, fragile, or personal to risk handing over: My grandmother's ring is unlendable.
It also describes items that practically can't be shared—a toothbrush, a diary, software with a single-user license.
