Hi People.

Does anyone have the dates and locations of the various European Knife show's? or where I can find this info?

A very good friend of mine called from Mannheim, Germany and invited me out to visit. If I go I would like to get it to coincide with a knife show and get a chance to see how it's done over there.

There is a show on this weekend in Germany, it is the German knife makers guild show. I am not sure where it is being held. For further info contact Harvey Silk from the Busy Beaver. E-mail: Der.Biber@t-online.de he will be able to help you with the shows. I know there is another one sometime in October or November in Germany.
