Will this protect my fingers from cuts while using bread knife to thinly slice onions, tomatoes, etc which I hold in my hand while slicing?

I have had good results from the gloves protecting my fingers when the knife has slipped.

Yes. Definitely adds a layer of protection. I let my children try woodcarving using one on their non-dominant/holding hand. So far, so good. Don't be over-confident, but these should really help.

Yes, the gloves are designed to protect your hands from cuts. They work well for my husband.

It's not clear to me how you're holding the onions, etc. I hold the veggies down on a cutting board with my left hand while slicing with my right, and the gloves are protective for that.

I can't say for certain, but from my experience using them they are fairly tough. I'm sure it would depend on the sharpness of your knife and amount of pressure.

I haven't used it since I sliced my finger. I was slicing tomatoes when it happened.

While I've never made that dish, I have sliced onions from about 1/8" to paper thin depending on what I'm making, using the larger mandoline. It works really well, meaning the slices are uniform and consistent as long as you use proper technique and don't try to go super fast (meaning slide the onion all the way back past the blades before heading forward for another slice).

If your blade is clean and rust free to begin with it will help protect it. Don't use the blade to cut food items.

No sleeve, but I keep it in my knife block so it's protected. Really good for cutting thin cheese.

Yes, absolutely! Infact, because it is so sharp, it slices right through the tomato with ease, and you can get really thin slices. A little pressure and it goes right through. You don't have to slide the knife forwards and backwards waiting for the skin to give way.

I have a bread slicing guide I use with a serrated bread knife. I've also noted that the loaves slice more easily when they have been stored a few hours in a plastic bag after it has cooled. It seems to soften the top crust a little so the knife won't just make it crumble. I also use the "soft" setting even if the recipe calls for regular or firm. The loaves seem to cut better and hold together better.

I wouldnt want to slice tomtatoes or onions with it. I would be afraid of getting my fingers in the blade. I would use a mandaline for that.

With any sharp edge there is always the danger of slicing your finger so you do have to be careful, but the nob should prevent that as you don't have your hands on the vegies as they are being sliced.

I dont believe so. Its for veggies. I think it would be like any other knife and would squash down the cheese as you cut. Potatoes and tomatoes arent supposed to stick to it because of the little grooves, but they do anyway.

I would think you might have a bit of difficulty unsnapping the tabs on this knife holder. It takes a certain bit of pressure combined with a twist of the wrist. I'd suggest trying to find a sheath-like protector that you could slide the knife into instead.

I've had no problem using it with my mandoline. I didn't use it for years before I got the glove because of the risk of cutting myself. I've got Parkinson's Disease and my hands are not very controllable.

Yes, and it is very sharp and cuts bread very well.Just keep your fingers out of the way. I found out the hard wayand cut one of my fingers badly.

Unless your electric knife is EXTREMELY narrow, it will not. Even fitting a normal bread knife is very tight.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that. The best advice I can give to you is that if you can find a way to help keep the slicer from sliding around on your counter top/table you shouldn't have that much difficulty slicing the bread.. You definitely need something to help hold the base in place as you slice.

Yes, I don't see why not, it protects your hand well from any slips with the knife. I used it when I filleted the Mother-in - Law. Joke !

I honestly don't know. I have used my cutter to slice parchment but nothing thinner than that. It does a nice job on parchment....doesn't leave a frayed edge or not cut cleanly. I would think if your blade is sharp the cutter would do a fine job.
