Thread: King Coticule is dead, Long live the new King

I have some terrible, terrible news !
John Holmes is not the biggest coticule
Rob Celis has given my photographic evidence of a coticule that I would say is about twice as long
It is shown in the arms of Rob's Dad (Mr Maurice Celis) at the mine, The huge stone now lives in the Coticule Museum.
Once again ENJOY

I would like to thank Rob for the information and permission to use the picture here.
Marcus.

Well hang on there a minute. We should first ascertain the exact dimensions of Mr Cellis's father before jumping to conclusions about the size of that coticule.

wow now thats a hone

Now, don't exaggerate. I would guess it to be only 1.65 X as long.

I'll try to find out.

Also, keep in mind that this new heir to the throne is sequestered away in a museum. Therefore you can still claim to have the biggest coticule in active service.

That means, just like Elvis, the King still lives!

Now, that looks like a hone that you could have two people honing blades from opposite sides at the same time!!!

Yes, mine was sourced from the market, so to speak. And it's not been demoted to an exhibit
