"I started out in 1988 thinking I could make a better knife than the ones I was buying, and I've been a full-time knife maker ever since. I was a Machinist in my former job, and I knew how to work with steel. Rod Olson was an early mentor and showed me the ropes of tactical folder engineering. Tony Marfione taught me how to do a hollow grind in 1999, and in 2000 his L-CC went gold at the Atlanta Blade Show. Another early design influence came from Joel Pirela; I thought he made a sweet knife and a number of his designs inspired my own. I met Jared Van Otterloo in 2014, and his energy and passion for knives and social media gave me new ideas. I loved his folder design ideas, and he had the ability to support and enhance my own designs and make them better."
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."
