About Gatco Knives

Originally recognized for their sharpening systems, Gatco quickly gained popularity among hunters, military personnel, and survivalists for their American-made knives. Their expansion into knives brought forward a line of fixed blades and folders crafted with a focus on functionality, ergonomics, and durability.

Today, under Bear & Son Cutlery, Gatco knives are still manufactured in the USA and undergo modern refinements in materials and craftsmanship — preserving their original toughness while enhancing performance for modern use.
