The longest guard in the CKTG felt knife guard line - 295mm (11.75 inches) long and 57mm (2.25 inches) tall - sized specifically for the larger knives that standard guards cannot cover: 270mm gyutos, sujihikis, and other long-format blades that account for a significant portion of the CKTG catalog. The construction is the same throughout the line: rigid black plastic exterior that absorbs impacts from other objects, soft felt-lined interior that protects edges and finishes without scratching.
For line cooks who carry a hanging knife bag, this guard has a practical advantage over a saya: it is narrower in profile, which means it takes up less space in a crowded bag and makes it easier to reach other knives without reorganizing the whole kit. At the price point it is a straightforward decision to put one of these on every long knife in your collection rather than leaving blades unprotected in a roll or drawer.
What Customers Are Saying: Nathan H uses this one for his Yahiko 270mm Sujihiki and praises the lining quality and material. Larry Johnson who would prefer sayas for every blade calls these very affordable and functional - he specifically notes the smaller footprint compared to a saya makes a significant difference in his crowded hanging bag. Alain Robillard bought a guard for every knife he purchased and highly recommends them. AK calls it an excellent and economic alternative to the traditional saya.
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.

Trust me, I’d love to have sayas for all my blades. But I can’t, so I buy these very affordable and functional blade guards instead. And the smaller footprint makes a big difference in a very crowded hanging bag.
