Kenley Bamboo Bread Slicer for Homemade Bread & Loaf Cakes - Compact, Adjustable, Foldable Slice Box Cutter with Cutting Board and Knife Slicing Guide - Thick & Thin Slices 1/3", 3/8" and 1/2"

Just what I was looking for ny home made bread it makes it easier to cut fresh bread.

A foldable bread slicer made of wood! The spring-loaded arrangement of the slatted wings is ingenious and tactile, allowing it to reduce in size for storage. A long bread-knife makes the cutting easy. The end-board can be fitted in any of the gaps between the slats of wood....that is why the gaps are all 5mm, while the slats are of various thicknesses......so if you want thin slices of bread you place the end-board next to a slimmer wooden slat, which requires the build of the slicer to be made with precision, which it is. Also, with the proper woodcare equipment the slicer becomes a thing of beauty, (and I love it).

This is a beautifully made piece of kit and much sturdier than the plastic ones I have broken so many of. The first time I used it I couldn't believe that I couldn't cut all the way down through the loaf. I had it all packaged up to return. Luckily I read the other reviews and that caused me to look closer at the product photos - turns out I had it upside down first time!! So I will try it again tomorrow morning and I am sure it wont be going back now!.

Unless you're cutting your bread with a samurai sword, this product is too wide. A normal length bread knife is extremely awkward to use, as it comes out of the guide on the back stroke and then jams into the guide when going forwards. A simple redesign would fix this.

It's awkward to store because it comes in 2 parts. The endstop piece could have easily fitted under the guide slots when they fold down, if they's been made just a teeny bit higher. But no. When they fold back they are just not quite high enough to allow the endstop piece to tuck under, so it has to be stored separately. That's annoying, because I only have a small kitchen so I can't afford the space to put it in its own box, so the separate piece can easily get lost.The guides for the knife blade are much too wide, so the main intention, i.e. to allow bread to be cut into slices of consistent thickness, doesn't work very well. Disappointing.

This is proving very useful for slicing bread and it folds flat for easy storage.A long bread knife is required though due to the size.Overall a good purchase.

The bread slicer is sturdy and well made, however it is so wide that you can't draw the bladevof an ordinary bread knife backwards and forwards in a cutting motion in order to actually cut the loaf. If you buy this, you will also need to buy a bread knife with a very very long blade.

This makes slicing bread really easy. The difficult part was finding a bread knife long enough to use it. It really needs a knife blade at least 10 inches long to use properly.
