Blade guards provide an excellent and cost effective way of protecting your knife blade from damage and more importantly your fingers! Perfect if you need to keep your knife in a drawer or knife roll while travelling to work.
They fit snugly so no need to worry about them sliding off and have a strong, hard exterior with a soft felt-like interior to protect your knife and blade.
Size Guide
Blade guards are designed to fit a range of knives, please use the size guides above to find the correct size for your knife. When viewing a knife, we suggest checking the cutting edge length listed on the knife product page and adding around 10-15mm to that to allow for the distance from the heel of the blade to the handle.

| Small - 16cm x 3.2cm | Petty, Ko-bunka, Ko-bocho |
| Medium - 22cm x 5cm | Santoku, Small Gyuto (180mm), Bunka, Nakiri, Funayuki, Sabaki, Usuba, Honesuki |

EU - Please note that for all orders shipped from the UK to the European Union from 1st July 2026, the EU has removed the historical 'de minimis' tax exemption for low-value goods. As a result, all shipments sent to EU consumers with a value of up to €150 are now subject to a flat customs duty of €3.00 per line item in your order, alongside standard local import VAT. This fee is applied directly by customs authorities to process the shipment across the border.
As per documentation published on 21 September 2026, the EU has announced a proposed customs handling fee of €2, which will be charged per customs import declaration line item, and applies to all B2C shipments entering the EU from 1 November 2026.
As the fee is applied at a customs import declaration line item level, rather than at a shipment level, shipments containing multiple item lines will incur multiple charges.
This new fee is in addition to the €3 duty per item line, which has been in place for B2C shipments below €150 since July 2026.
