I don't know how that story ends, but as it stands, I'm going down there this weekend, with my straight shaving friends.We 're set up for a guided tour, that will be hosted by Maurice's son Rob.

Bart.
Wow, please give us a report, Bart. That sounds awesome. I've conversed back and forth with Rob a bunch of times. He's a great guy to deal with. I've also purchased some stones from him. Please take pics of the coticule room; shelves and shelves of finished coticules!

Very cool. Have fun and tell Rob we all said hello.
