Custom Knifemaker Profile: Paul van Der Merve

A member of the Cape Knifemakers' Guild of Southern Africa.

"I have always loved knives and bought my very first knife in 1953. My interest in knife-making developed extensively, however, after reading an article about Bob Loveless and his unique knife designs.
A conversation with Rob Brown during a knife show at Gold Reef City in 1997, led me to my first knife-making course with Andre Thorburn in 1998, after which I officially entered into the world of Knifemaking.
Today I am not only honoured to be a full time custom Knifemaker, but I am very honoured to be a member of the Cape Knife Maker's Guild and I will continue to make knives that echoes my passion for the 'Loveless Designed Drop Point'."
