The MAC Professional bread and roast slicer is built around a long, low-drag 10.5 in (26.5cm) serrated blade for clean slicing rather than general chopping.
It crosses a large loaf or roast cleanly rather than forcing short, crushing strokes, and suits crusty bread, cakes and soft-skinned produce. Made in Japan.
you expect to cut bones, frozen food or use the knife roughly; you need a general chopping knife. Compare Professional Bread/Roast Slicer with its adjacent Good/Better/Best alternative before deciding.

Lucy's Verdict
A best serrated specialist with a clear point of difference: mac is here for cooks who judge a knife by how little resistance they feel through food.

Why we chose it
We wanted one serrated knife in this price band that would earn drawer space rather than exist only to complete a matching set. MAC’s bread/roast slicer is built around a long, low-drag blade for clean slicing rather than general chopping. The 10 cm serrated blade gives enough length to cross a standard loaf cleanly rather than forcing short, crushing strokes.
Who it's best for
Buy it if you want a serrated specialist mainly for crusty loaves, cakes and soft-skinned produce; you naturally use long, light sawing strokes; you prioritise thin geometry and low cutting resistance over decoration. Professional Bread/Roast Slicer is the recommendation when those priorities line up.
