I wanted to say to anyone interested in buying a Greer Knife that you will
be amazed the moment you receive it in the mail. The quality is not to be
equaled anywhere!! I purchased my knife 33 yrs ago and recently had one
built for my son. When he saw it he was totally in awe! The biggest decision
you will have after purchase is who will you leave it to once you’re gone.
100% the sharpest best looking knife out there and getting the updates of
the build as it happens with pics just adds to the excitement of waiting for
completion. You realize right away that you’re dealing with a perfectionist
at every level and I can honestly say you will be amazed the second you hold
it. Thanks Gary for making knives that last forever and quality
unsurpassed!!!
Back in the mid 1980’s, you made me six custom knives: two skinners, three drop points and a caper. After having used them on whitetails, mule deer, antelope, moose, elk, bear and dall sheep, small game and birds, I can attest to their durability, edge-holding abilities, and not the least their good looks. They have served me well in Saskatchewan, Alberta, BC, and the Yukon. They have stood the test of time. My oldest son now uses one each of the drop points and skinners.
Knife found its way to me in good order and all complete. I was totally taken aback upon opening the box and revealing this amazingly beautiful knife, rather work of art. The pictures on your web site do not do this piece justice. It is stunning. I have it put away in a safe spot; but I bring it out to look at quite frequently. The colours in the wood of the handle, the file work, the mirror finish of the blade itself (I can see my reflection in it), is all something to take in. It is quite the work of art and is appreciated and will be well cared for. It is amazing, for the size of the knife, how light it is to handle and the handle of the knife is so smooth, like silk, to the touch. It is definitely something that is not mass produced and very unique, and made in Canada, by hand, from Canadian materials, something that is rare these days. Overall, it is a stunning knife and exactly what I was looking for and expecting. It is an heirloom
piece for sure, that will be carried, eventually; but very limited and carefully.
....all I can say is WOW! You're truly an artist and a craftsman.

I received the knife today – all I can say is WOW! You’re truly an artist and a craftsman. It looks great and feels great in my hand – looking forward to having it on my belt for many years to come!
Thanks again,

....and the report was that the knife was amazing to use, felt very good in his hand and held the edge very well.

Hi Gary. You made a beautiful knife for my husband last year – an elk horn handle with a beautiful 6-7” blade. You hand crafted the sheath for his knife and were lovely enough to put his initials in the leather as well. He loved his gift and the professionalism in our dealings and the craftsmanship of this knife were beyond our expectations.
Today he was lucky enough to shoot a deer and the report was that the knife was amazing to use, felt very good in his hand and held the edge very well. He’s very happy with your knife. Once again thank you so much for this beautiful knife. It will be in our family forever and we are grateful.

From the creative design, selection of materials and the construction of each individual knife Gary brings an exemplary level of craftsmanship.

I have just purchased my second knife from Gary Greer and couldn’t be more pleased.
I starting following Gary Greer Knives on Facebook some time ago and through his postings gained an insight and appreciation of the time and effort that goes into the creation of one of his knives. From the creative design, selection of materials and the construction of each individual knife Gary brings an exemplary level of craftsmanship.
In fact, both of the knives that I have purchased were subjects of his Facebook posts. When you are aware of the Makers thoughts on the design of your knife, the selection of materials and the many steps that your knife goes through until you hold it in your hand it takes on special meaning.
Gary balances functionality and design to give you a knife that in my case will become a family heirloom.
Check out Gary’s Facebook page. You will find it interesting and informative and perhaps in the process you will discover your next knife.

A photo of a Greer knife hints at its quality; but a full appreciation of the blade only happens once it is held up close and personal.

The short blade, razor sharp, right to the tip, is ideal for walking the back-country, which one does during the early spring (before the bugs come out enforce), mid- to late- summer and fall. The knife is a functional work of art with great balance and grip (even with the slight tang extension, behind the handle). The Arizona Ironwood handle refracts the light so that sometimes it is a very dark brown, to very light brown, with the grain of the wood visible. The wood used in the construction of the handle for this blade, sets it apart. The colour changes of this Arizona Ironwood can only be fully appreciated when experienced first hand — it is an experience!! A photo of a Greer knife hints at its quality; but a full appreciation of the blade only happens once it is held up close and personal. Well worth the investment, including the S17.

Just received my new knife and extremely quick too, oh, and what workmanship!! I almost don’t want to use it this fall on our annual moose hunt, but I will. The time, effort and skill that has gone into fashioning this work of art is too good for me to just let sit and admire.
I have some very good hunting knives back in New Zealand but nothing that remotely compares to this.

Hello Gary, I received E10 today and I must say it’s a good knife. The grind looks even and all the details on the spine of the blade and the leather sheath are almost too pretty for an EDC knife.

Couldn’t be happier with the results of the knife Gary made me. It showed up in a timely fashion once completed, and is something of art and
quality. Definitely something that will out live me and my son will put it to use when I’m gone.
Gary is very easy to communicate with and is thorough in asking the right questions to make sure you get the knife you want.
I highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a quality knife.

I’ve been collecting knives since I was a kid – I’ve purchased 3 knives from Gary and he is an artist. My knives are pieces of art – the detail in the knives and sheaths is incredible. It’s a lot of work. Thank you, Gary

The knife sheath and handle materials are all high end. It truly a piece of art.
Customer service given by Gary is second to none – do not hesitate to buy on his site. It was my first Greer’s knife but not my last.

It holds an edge better than anything I own.

My opinion is for the price point this is the best knife you can buy, competing with much much more expensive knives in my collection. I honestly think I would have to spend 4 X the money to get the same level of craftsmanship.
Gary was excellent to deal with, shipping was a breeze and delivery was early. If you have ever bought a custom knife this is truly amazing.
