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.

| Medium - 22cm x 5cm | Santoku, Small Gyuto (180mm), Bunka, Nakiri, Funayuki, Sabaki, Usuba, Honesuki |

Our aim is to measure and photograph our products as accurately as possible but due to many items being handmade, finished or using natural materials, there can be minor variance in measurements and things such as blade or wood finishes can vary. We will always endeavour to provide the most accurate measurements, photos and descriptions of our products.
Some measurements such as HRC are provided by manufacturers and should therefore be used as a guide.
