CKTG Black Felt Knife Guard 5.5" / 150mm

Sized for petty and paring knives in the 120-140mm range, the 5.5-inch guard is the right choice for the small blades that tend to get left unprotected in a drawer or bag. At 150mm (6 inches) long and 25mm (just under 1 inch) tall it is a compact guard that fits small knives snugly without looseness that would allow movement inside. The black plastic exterior protects against impacts; the soft felt-lined interior keeps the edge and finish safe from scratching.

Paul Frontiero, who considers CKTG felt guards the best available anywhere, specifically notes this size fits snugly without sticking - a meaningful detail because a guard that requires force to remove can catch the edge on the way out. At 25mm height this guard is sized for blades on the narrower end of the petty range - reviewers with 130mm petties note it covers the blade rather than the full height, which is a practical consideration if full coverage is a priority.

What Customers Are Saying: Paul Frontiero rates the CKTG felt guard line the highest quality available and says this size fits snug but does not stick - the felted interior protects the steel from rust or stain. Alain Robillard bought a guard for every knife he purchased and highly recommends them for protection. Nathan H notes the quality is good but suggests going up a size if you want full blade height coverage on a 130mm petty - a useful tip for buyers in that range.

Care Instructions: Always install with the spine exposed and the cutting edge fully covered by the felt lining. Dry knives thoroughly before placing them in the guard. Clean the interior felt occasionally with a dry cloth.
