    Neil,,, I just can't agree with you on stoning them with the coticules,,, I would use PHIG's they are heavier & the Chinese would probably give us a deal on a lot of them , for the publicity alone,,,

    We need, as DaveW points out in another thread, hones/stones with a greater specific density. So maybe Arkansas ........ hard, not soft .........

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Read this on FB. Just don't understand why folks can't leave other folks and there stuff alone. It's a dog gone shame. Lets hope they get it all back.

    if someone put the thief up to it then they are no better then the thief !!
    hell I feel bad when I get a steal of a price at a antique store ! and I know if I was approached by a person with a trunk full of coticules I would be very suspect and ask a few questions , on a bright note least it wasn't more or coticules from the rare specimens ( that I know of) but that can also be bad as they would have been photographed ..

    still just one of the last places I would think of being robbed , but hopefully they get some more security levels !!

    shoot I will work for coticules if they need a security guard !

    Criminals Do not think in the way that the "average" person does. They have no conscience.

    Why rob/rape a 26 year old when they can fight back? When an 86 year old will do?

    I was thinking that it is not possible to be roobed i Belgium. They will catch it sooner or later.Sorry about the holle situation.
    If they didnt cach them the1 week we all have to look alround for a questionable coties.
    I think that he will cutt them to sell them ,or truing to sell the big stones ,uncut is the best thing .........for Mr Cellis/very patient and good man/
    The sooner and faster police work ,its better .Hope everything goes good for Ardenes coticule.When they start producing and working again ,it is good that we all purchase stones ,to help cover the lost . I intend to get big size BBW/i whant a red kind of the stone,Vosgienne alike/ and small harg finisher, coti bout.

    They are still producing. I just recently ordered a second coticule from them when I heard the bad news.

    Anything non porous would do! I looked up jasper to see if it's any higher in SG, but it is also just sub 3.0 (not surprising, I guess).

    Maybe some lead ingots. I think lead SG is 11 or 12

    Somewhere, someone is sitting with a pile of large stolen coticules cursing the fact that the edge they're getting isn't as keen as they'd like.

    Might as well go whole hog. Anybody got any depleted uranium lying around?
