I note the past tense.
Other than Singer in Paris (and maybe Berthoud), are there any KOF builders left in France?
There seem to be just very few in Italy, while off the top of my head in the UK there's still Mercian, Jackson, Hetchins, Roberts, Jarvis, Condor, Caygill, Witcomb, Rotrax, Woodrup, Ellis Briggs, maybe (or at least until very recently) Bates, just to name those still around from yesteryear, as well as Dave Yates and our very own Kevin Sayles and others of their class (plus Argos, Vaz etc. better known as painters...).
Looks like there'll always be an England.
