Wash the English cucumber thoroughly. Using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife, slice the cucumber thinly into rounds.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, curry powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh dill (chopped finely). Mix well to create the dressing.
Add the sliced cucumber to the bowl with the dressing and gently toss to coat all slices evenly. Set aside for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Lightly butter each slice of bread on one side to prevent the cucumber salad from making the bread soggy.
Lay four slices of bread, buttered side facing up, on a clean surface. Spread an even layer of the cucumber salad mixture on top of each slice.
Top with the remaining four slices of bread, buttered side facing the cucumber salad, to form sandwiches.
Using a sharp knife, trim the crusts off the sandwiches (optional) and slice each sandwich into halves or quarters, depending on your preference.
Serve immediately, or cover with a slightly damp paper towel and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.
