For a non-fish solution, which would work with any shell, use find:
find . -maxdepth 1 -iname '[b-k]*'
You can change "iname" to "name" to make it sensitive to case. You can add
"-type f" if you want only regular files.
The find command can used with command substitution:
rm -iv (find . -maxdepth 1 -iname '[b-k]*') # works in fish
or by itself:
find . -maxdepth 1 -iname '[b-k]*' -execdir rm -iv '{}' '+'
