This beautiful tool was first designed by the producer as a gift for her mother when she was only 13 years old.
Handcut from black walnut wood and polished to perfection, this bread lame is as beautiful as it is functional. Use this tool for scoring bread dough before it goes in the oven, so it can grow and expand into an airy loaf. The lame has stunning brass thumb nuts that tighten and release the double-edged razor blade, and the brass safety guard is adorned with elegant French scrollwork. Plus, it’s available in both right- and left-hand orientations.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
