    Here's what Goins' says about it:

    W. Greaves & Sons
    c1816-1850
    This firm was in Sheffield, England. William Greaves was in business by 1780, his sons joined the firm in 1816. They then became William Greaves & Sons. The Sheaf Works was started in 1823, and completed by 1826.

    The firm was sold to B.J. Eyre & Company in 1850, and they may have continued using the Greaves markings for a time. They were a maker of "Bowie" type knives, among other kinds of cutlery.

    Hope this helps out a bit,
