Protect your kitchen knife with this durable Knife Guard, designed to keep your blade safe during storage, transport, and everyday use. Whether you're storing your knives at home, packing them in a knife roll, or taking them to work, a knife guard helps protect both the cutting edge and those handling the knife.

Made from tough, lightweight plastic with a soft felt lining, these blade protectors help prevent scratches, chips, and accidental damage while keeping your knife securely covered. Their slim design makes them easy to fit into drawers, knife rolls, or storage cases without adding unnecessary bulk.

Available in three sizes:

  • Up to 170mm blade length – Ideal for petty knives, utility knives, and small Santoku.
  • Up to 250mm blade length – Suitable for most Gyuto, Santoku, Bunka, and medium-sized chef's knives.
  • Up to 300mm blade length – Designed for larger Gyuto, Sujihiki, Kiritsuke, and other long-bladed knives.

Important Care Information

If you're using a carbon steel knife, we strongly recommend applying a light coat of food-safe camellia oil or food-grade mineral oil before placing it in the guard for extended storage. The felt lining can retain small amounts of moisture, particularly in humid environments, which may increase the risk of rust forming on reactive carbon steel blades.

Always ensure your knife is completely clean and dry before inserting it into the guard. For long-term storage, periodically inspect the blade and reapply oil as needed. Stainless steel knives do not require the same level of care but should also be clean and dry before storage.
