Bread Lame

A Lame (pronounced LAHM, meaning “blade” in French) is typically a long thin stick made to hold a metal razor used to cut, or score, bread dough to help control the expansion of the loaf as it bakes.

It has an easy grip handle allows for steady control and accurate cutting. It also uses inexpensive replaceable double edge blades which makes it both economical and ecological. Since you’re only cutting with one corner of the blade at a time and the blade can easily be rotated, you get maximum life out of each blade. The handle is plastic — intentionally. It keeps the price accessible, it won't rust or warp, and it's non-porous so it cleans up easily and won't harbor bacteria. It's the right material for the right tool for the right customer.  Includes:  1 lame handle and 5 double-edged razor blades.
