The Gembloux Knife Fair, also known as the Gembloux Knife Show, is an annual event held in Gembloux, Belgium.

What is the BKS (belgian knife society)
The BKS is a network of passionate fans of the craft of the knife maker.
From knife makers, to suppliers of raw materials and collectors with whom many objects end up.
All those who have been fascinated and interested in the knife are welcome at the BKS.
History of the belgian knife society
BKS was founded in 1996 by René Bol, Jacques Delfosse, Richard Ghenne and Alain Lapierre.
The four friends had set themselves the goal of gathering as many people as possible around the handmade cutlery.
Almost 25 years later, the team behind BKS has changed, but the basic principles have remained the same.
The mission of the BKS is:
- promote the exchange of knowledge,
- record the history of knife art,
- carry out surveys and promote knives to the general public.

Conclusion
It is one of the historic fairs for cutlery in Europe and has already reached its 21st edition.
I often like to do this type of informative post on fairs and cutlery exhibitions in order to make a small contribution to make known fairs and exhibitions on cutlery in Italy, Europe, the USA and the world in general.
There is always a need to make known and promote the custom knife to people who have this interest, make it discover to new people and also provide suggestions to makers to participate in these events as exhibitors or as an opportunity to meet other makers and see their works directly and not through a photo.
If you have the opportunity to visit the fair tell me about your experience and if you participate as a maker I hope it is a wonderful experience for you and that you have also sold some of your knives.
