How to get uniform slices from bread? We make bread for sandwiches a few times a week, but slicing them is always a pain.  The pieces just don't come out uniform. I end up with angled pieces as the knife doesn't end up going straight down.

Is there a trick to getting uniform pieces from a loaf?
Try using a bow style bread knife.  It works well because it allows you to put pressure on the opposite side of the loaf.  Also, the bow helps you visually line up the slice.
