CAUTION! When slicing bread with a knife be careful not to place your fingers in line with the cutting action of the knife. Do not allow children to use this product. Handle with care.

This guide is designed to cut three different thickness of bread: 3/8 + 1/2 + 3/4-inch quickly and easily. The loaf width can be up to 5 1/2 inches wide. The minimum thickness you can obtain has a lot to do with the density and softness of the bread you are cutting. My goals were to make it easy to use, affordable, durable, easily stored and most of all slice's straight slices of bread every time.

The slicing guide ships with a free anti slip mat that is placed under the slicing guide to stop it from sliding on your countertop while slicing. If your mat wares out, you can purchase one locally.

I personally hand craft each bread slicing guide in Lincolnton, Georgia from solid 3/4-inch oak lumber for the side rails and 1/2-inch oak veneer for the bread table. It will last a lifetime with proper care. Just clean with a damp or dry cloth. Do not soak with water.

The finish used is food grade mineral oil that meets US FDA requirements for food contact surfaces and is safe for all food preparation surfaces. The penetrating quality of food-grade mineral oil brings out the depth of grain in wood and helps prevent drying and cracking. You may apply more mineral oil or cutting board oil as the wood dries over time.

All shipments are shipped FREE. Your order will ship the same day or the next business day from when I receive the paid order. Transit time is usually 2 to 3 days.

If your bread thickness needs are different than those listed above, message me your required thicknesses. It’s quite possible I can custom build a guide to meet your specific needs.

Videos are available showing the guide being used by going to “You Tube” and searching for “Mystery Lathe”.

A few words of advice in using a horizontal slicing guide:

I have hundreds of my horizontal slicing guides all over the USA and 99% of the people using them are very happy as you can witness in my reviews. After selling close to 2,000 of my various style horizontal and vertical slicing guides I find that if you have issues with the use of your hands to slice bread, I advise you to not buy a horizontal slicing guide, buy a vertical guide. It requires more dexterity to slice horizontally than vertically. BUT........if your hands work........horizontal slicing is the fastest and easiest way to slice perfect slices of your bread. Don't forget that after you use your guide, if you're not satisfied, it can be returned for a full refund within 30 days of purchase. The old saying "Practice makes perfect" applies to learning how to use this guide.

A bread knife with a blade length of at least 12 inches is recommended for slicing. A shorter knife will not work. Knife not included with order.

Do not place your guide into water or a dish washer. Simply wipe off with a dry or damp cloth if needed.

Can you cut yourself on this guide? Absolutely! Use caution while slicing. Do not allow children to use the guide. If you think you may injure yourself don't use the guide. Return it for a full refund. I want you totally safe and satisfied.

I wish I had known about the bread guide that lets you cut horizontally and vertically. This one is great but the other would be even better.




Absolutely Love it! Ordered one of the knifes that was recommended from Amazon and it works great with the bread slicer. Like that I can get three different thicknesses from the bread I slice. So glad I stumbled upon your shop on Etsy. I am getting into baking my own bread so this is great to have!


Made with high quality but just hard to cut the bread in general
