About the Maker
Chamblin, Joel
Joel started making knives in 1989 when he became interested in a hobby that a customer of his had. The customer brought Joel a piece of steel, a stag horn and a book on how to make knives. His first knife was a fixed blade hunter that he still has today. In 1991 Joel became a full time knife maker due to a job lay-off. He made fixed blades for a couple of years and started going to knife shows, his first show was in Nashville, TN. His interest grew into the workings of linerlocks and folders and his business grew from there. Joel has always loved the older style of multiblades and now primarily creates multibladed folders, from the simple to the unique, fancy multiblades. Joel still makes linerlocks and fixed blades but his love of the 'Sheffield ' style knives are his passion.
JVO Design
JVO Design is Jared Van Otterloo. "I have always had a fascination with knives, as far back as my memory can provide. When I reached a time in my life of having disposable income I began to collect knives and really took an interest in folders. I was drawn in by the mechanical meets artistic concept and spent several years buying, selling, trading, and collecting folding knives. As time wore on I wanted more… not more knives, but continued learning and a chance to participate in the industry. In 2014 I met Greg Lightfoot and Rod Olson at a local metal art show, from that point forward my brain began to purge all my thoughts into knife design, and I built up JVO Design into a household name. I collaborated on 77 folding knife designs with some of the most prolific makers in the tactical knife genre. In 2018 I began to make folding knives out of my own shop."
