Question 1

I watched the video but it doesnt show a complete slicing action. Does the knife blade run into the cutting board on each pass through?

Accepted Answer

I had trouble with a regular bread knife and I had a new nice one so I bought an electric knife and that did the trick for me.  I have made marks on the bottom board with the knife.  Nothing bad that would interfere with the slicing but they are noticeable.  With my bread, if I don't get close to the bottom then it seems the slices don't completely seperate at the bottom.  I love the slicer and it's so easy to clean.  The only thing I would change is to have all the slot sizes the same size.  It would make the slicing much easier for me.  If you have anymore questions, just ask and I hope I've helped you.

Question 2

There were no instructions for cleaning before the first use.  Don't want to immerse in soapy water as some of the wood is unsealed.  How do I clean?

Accepted Answer

I just washed mine off the first time with a wet paper towel.  I use a wet towel now after each time I use it.  I hold it upside down first and shake off the crumbs which come off easily.  It's super easy to keep clean and I like mine.  I was having trouble slicing bread without it and I'm glad I found it.

Question 3

Does this have a crumb catcher on the bottom?

Accepted Answer

No crumb catcher, but for good reason - each side has 2 slots it can go into - that gives you the choice of slicing normal width bread, or narrow width bread such as a bagel. It really is well made and gives you the choice of thin slice (in depth) or regular slice bread.

Question 4

My bread knife has a 9" blade. Is that long enough to work effectively and/or easily?

Accepted Answer

Because I'm gluten-free, I make my own bread.  This slicing device really helps cut uniform slices.  The widest measurement is 6-3/4", so your 9" bread blade will work.  In fact, I measured my bread knife; it's 9".  You should be fine.  BTW, I LOVE this bread slicing guide!!
