Blade Guard™ 6" Knife Blade Edge Protector — Locking, Made in USA

Blade Guard™ 6-Inch Locking Knife Protector — Made in USA

The 6" Blade Guard™ is the mid-range workhorse of the camp kitchen — the size that covers the utility knives, boning knives, and fillet knives you reach for most often. Unlike open-top guards that rely on friction and can let a blade slide out when jostled in a backpack or cooler bag, the Blade Guard™ fully encloses the blade with secure locking tabs that stay closed until you deliberately open them.

Made in the USA from BPA-free, food-safe polypropylene. Dishwasher safe. Frosted so you can see the blade inside without opening the guard.

⚠️ Why locking matters: Open-top guards rely on friction to stay on. In a backpack, cooler bag, or RV drawer, that friction can fail when the knife shifts or gets jostled. The Blade Guard™ locking tabs keep the blade fully enclosed under pressure, vibration, and movement — the way a guard should work outside the kitchen.
