Traditional Walnut Bread Lame with Replaceable Blades

A well-made bread lame gives you the control needed for clean scoring and consistent oven spring. Made from walnut with brass fittings, this lame is built for precise cuts and comfortable handling.

The straight blade goes cleanly through the surface of the dough, so you can make controlled expansion scores, decorative patterns and well-defined ears without dragging or tearing.

Supplied with replacement blades, so it stays sharp for as long as you keep baking.

Frequently asked questions

The things people ask us before they buy, and the things they ask after.

Read the guides
What is a lame for?
Scoring the dough just before baking so it expands in a controlled way and opens into an ear.
Which blade does it take?
Standard double sided razor blades. Swap the blade when it starts to drag rather than slice.
Any tips for a clean score?
Score cold, firm dough with a confident, shallow, angled cut in one motion. Do not saw at it.
How do I store it safely?
The blade is sharp, so cover or retract it after use and keep it well away from children.

This lame works really well, the only snag i find it it's slightly tricky to get the guard on afyer use. But iverall a lovely bit of kit.
