Bread Lame

I mostly love this, but i over tightened it to use and when trying to loosen it after use…sliced through the thumb/bird combo. There are tips for safely dealing with a stuck ufo on the website and probably in the booklet that came with it. Just thought I should mention that after “a year” of scoring, I failed to remember those tips in the moment. Also, I accept that I’m an idiot.

It’s time to stop. I’ve been putting off buying a bread lame because I’m a casual bread baker (1-2x/mo). I always thought I could get by with scoring my loaf with a sharp chef or paring knife. And I guess I have but now that I’ve used this it’s so much easier and it makes a nice deep cut that you CANNOT get with a knife. I try not to get any unnecessary kitchen tools. But this is so small and handy and seriously sharp. I wish I had gotten one 3 years ago.

I totally suggested that colab a couple years ago, so I am glad it happened! Monkey blades are cool and accurate, works great
