Victorinox47302 Cutlery BladeSafe for 6-Inch to 8-Inch Knife Blades

Protecting a sharp edge from getting inadvertently dinged is not easy in most of our kitchens. Neither is storing our best knives with razor sharp edges in a fashion that protects careless fingers from getting nicked. In the past, i have made my own sheaths for knives that didn't come with a saya.This sheath provides easy access. It is sturdy. The design is excellent for use with a great variety of blade styles from the 8 inch Victorinox slicer, an 8 inch chef knife to an 8 inch custom gyuto. So it should fit any knife with a blade between 6-8 inches. I bought two go go with a set of knives from Victorinox, and will be ordering more for some of my own knifes.

Love these, have 6 or 7 of them for my new kitchen knives. Keeps the edge sharp and no worry about slicing your hand when you reach in the drawer to get a knife.

I bought this to house my 6.7 inch Victorinox Santoku. It's made of durable plastic and holds the blade snuggly.Some customers have complained that the rubber pads that hold the blade in place leaves a "stain". They do not! They leave a small outline on the stainless steel finish that easily wipes off.This is an excellent accessory if you need to transport your knife or just to keep it pristine. And most importantly, protects you from getting an accidental cut.Highly recommend.

I like that when putting my very sharp Wusthof Classic Chef Knife into it I can just lay it in the "clam shell type" case and close it. My hand never comes close to the blade. The conventional sheaths however I was afraid if I slip trying to insert it into the narrow opening it might cut my hand that is holding it. It also fits my 8 inch blade perfectly. Great product for the price!

I needed a knife guard that met three criteria: keeps a knife safe from banging against anything else in the drawer, guard itself does not damage the knife, and must travel well.Originally bought one of these to go along with a Fibrox chef's knife a few years ago. I have since purchased two more of these knife protectors as they meet and exceed my initial three criteria.I travel a lot with my knives. This Victorinox knife guard has rubber pads on the inside of the guard that keeps the blade snug and in place. The two latches lock and unlock easily and provide very clear tactile and audible feedback on use. Overall an ideal design.I eventually tried using the guard on my other knives (a 5" santoku and a 6" nakiri). Since they both fit so well I went ahead and bought an additional pair of these Victorinox guards.The only thing keeping me from giving this a total 5 stars is that the rubber pads on the inside of the case (the ones that hold the blade in place) leave a visible residue on the knives. I've cleaned the guards several times now so I'm confident the residue is not from packaging or manufacturing at this point so I think it must be the material of the pads themselves. The residue is minor, barely noticeable, and washes off easily but I wonder how long the pads will last if they're rubbing off like this.Will update this review if anything of note occurs.

These clamp down on the blade and keep it nice and safe while traveling or even in drawers. Make sure to dry the blade completely before storing in these.

I bought this for my 8 inch Victorinox Fibrox Chef's knife and just as it is to be expected they fit like a glove, and more importantly, the knife do not budge at all inside of it.Yes, the rubber pieces that hold the blade in place leave a small print in the blade that, so far, I have been able to clear without any effort. But even if that was not the case, I rather have my knife secure and well protected than a small stain on the blade.

We have two of these for our 8 in and 10 in Chefs knives and we love them. They work great for storung them in our kitchen drawers and also for when we want to travel with them (Yes, we take our knives to our friends' and family's houses when we are going to cook - we are those people). Our first one lasted ten years with a ton of use, so they also hold up well.
