Folding Walnut Bread Lame with 5 Replacement Blades
A walnut lame that folds shut like a pocket knife, so the blade lives inside the handle rather than under a sheath you will eventually lose. Open it, score, fold it, put it in the drawer.
A brass thumb screw sets how tightly the blade is held, so it does not shift mid-cut. The handle is slim enough to hold like a pen, useful for anything more detailed than one score down the middle.
This is the one to pick if the lame is going in a drawer with other utensils, or travelling with you. If you would rather have the blade fixed and exposed, the traditional walnut lame is the simpler tool.
Comes with five replacement blades.
When the blades run out
Change the blade the moment it drags rather than slices, because a dull blade tears the surface of the dough and technique will not save it. It takes any standard double-edge razor blade. We stock Japanese Feather Hi-Stainless blades, which hold an edge through wet dough better than most.

Care
- Fold the blade into the handle when not in use
