will this hold a bread knife?

How long and wide is the bread knife? My 8" long bread knife does fit in this case. This will hold a knife only up to 8" long (tip of blade to handle; but not including the handle in that measurement.)

Hi Liz, take a look at my review of this blade guard, yes it will hold the bread knife but not very securely. It falls apart in seconds, is not very convenient to open and close and doesn't fit as snugly as you might hope. I bought this blade guard at the same time I bought a slip in sleeve type guard for another knife. The sleeve type guard is by far a better choice in my opinion. At least the sleeve type lasted more than two uses without losing parts as there is only one piece to the sleeve guard. I'm expecting a new sleeve type guard for my bread knife to arrive today.

Yes. Measure length of blade from tip to base and order accordingly. Case not attractive but will keep blade snug with no slippage. Nice product for price.

looks like it will- look at the post in your bread basket...is it notched like one third of the circle is missing?if yes it may work...might be a little loose though...good luck

Yes and no. I have a 10" bread knife and it just fits in the top slot without protruding or being flush with the base. An 11" knife will fit but the tip will protrude out the base almost an inch. Due to the angle of the block there is ample clearance from the counter and the tip would not touch the counter, but it will not be protected by wood and a curious hand could contact the tip. I love the quality of the block, nice rubber feet. I have two 8" chefs knives in the top two right hand slots. The left squarish hole meant for a steel (which I don't own) is perfect for a pair of small pointy shears. Hope that helps. Yes and no.

Yes, we use it for crusty bread as well as soft sandwich loaves and it is really awesome for both. Better than my expensive wedding gift knives

Nooooooooo. It barely fits my 11.5 inch bread knife. I dunno if your measuring handle and all. But an 11.5 in bladed knife barely fit.

The slots are wide enough for the bread knife that is part of my Cuisinart electric knife set.

Yes, definitely. This will hold up to two 10"-12" chef knives in both the top left and top right slots.

Yep, as well as any standard bread knife. And the grip on this knife is nice enough to let you put muscle into it without hurting your hand. Note that 8 inches may be a bit short of a blade though if it is a huge loaf of crusty bread. If I had to do again I'd probably go with a 10" bread knife.

The length of the knife would definitely fit. However I think the width (2.5 in) would depend on the depth of your drawer. So if you have a deep drawer this is going in, then yes.

The slot is 3/32" wide. I have no idea whether an electric knife would fit.

The slots are wide enough for bagels...I think it would be wide enough for your particular bread.

Sorry, I purchased this as a gift and although I'd say it holds a regular sized loaf of bread I have not actually used it.

This holds all my Wustoff knives, the bread knife and my large chef's knife and they could be a little longer and still fit.

The knife will fit but it is a tight fit and caution will be needed at all times because it is held on by friction and has no hard plastic liner. However, the leather is THICK, and nicely tanned. Vegetable tanned, I believe.

I would not, the guides are made for a standard 10" bread knife. A double bladed electric knife would most likely be too thick to easily pass through the guide .

It's specifically fitted for the 8.2 inch gyutou chefs knife. I'm not sure if another knife would fit.

I have four steak knives, kitchen shears, a paring knife, small Santuko knife, a chefs knife and a bread knife in mine, spaced nicely apart as it is now, but also could fit more. It's not quite deep enough to hold all of the blade of the bread knife, just FYI. I don't mind, but it could be a problem if you try to load more knives...
