Breadtopia 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.

Breadtopia has not carried a bread lame prior to this one because they were unable to find one that they liked. They were either over priced or disposable. To work well, the blade needs to be extremely sharp, so a replaceable blade was a necessary feature of an acceptable lame. They also wanted to carry a lame that was reasonably priced, so they made their own!
