Wire Monkey in the press
We're a small team in Connecticut designing and making bread lames. Now and then the people who test kitchen tools for a living put ours through their paces. Here's where our bread lames have been recognized.
New York Times Wirecutter · Top Pick
“The best bread lame”
New York Times Wirecutter named the Wire Monkey Goose their Top Pick in the bread lame review. The Goose is our curved black walnut stick lame, held like a pencil for fine, detailed sourdough scoring.
America’s Test Kitchen · Top Pick
“Best for Intricate Scoring”
America’s Test Kitchen named the Wire Monkey UFO Bread Journey a Top Pick. The UFO is the original round lame, holding the blade safely for clean, decorative cuts.
