UFO Bread Lame
What is a UFO Bread Lame?
Take your scoring skills to the next level with this UFO bread lame. Using this lame gives fine control over bread scoring so you can create beautiful patterns with ease. The blade can be stored inside the lame for safety when it is not being used.
Scoring the dough with a bread lame allows you to control the rise of the bread, directing it where you want it to go. It can also improve its appearance by creating a decorative pattern on the bread’s surface, which can make it look more attractive and professional.
A regular knife does not move as swiftly through the dough, and drags.
It’s also challenging to be precise with the cuts, as a knife blade is much longer and harder to maneuver. Make sure to score deep enough, from 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch deep, erring on the later.
Since most lames only utilize one corner of the razor blade, you can rotate the blade and get full use out of all four corners. There’s no hard and fast rule about how often you should change the blade, but most bakers will swap blades out every five to 10 loaves in order to get the cleanest slash.

Have I used the UFO Bread Lame? Do I need it?
No, I haven’t used this type of UFO bread lame, but I have used a blade to score my crusty bread doughs. This is an excellent version, and retraction is a good safety feature for storage.
Do I use it every day?
We do use a blade to cut our dough, so it would be used every day. However, if you do a lot of cutting, I wonder if it would it be comfortable to hold for long periods? It might be good at cutting finer patterns than the long blade lame.
