Baguette blade insert for wooden baker's knives

Make professional incisions in your baguettes and create precise patterns - from straight cuts to incisions below the surface. Please note that you also need a wooden baker's knife for the baguette blade insert, which must be purchased separately. What is it suitable for? For working with handmade wooden baker's knives if you want to achieve controlled cuts and special patterns. How is it used? Slightly loosen the two screws of your baker's knife, slide the insert in and tighten the screws again. The blade can then either be fitted straight or shaped along the curve - ideal for a round, not very torn baguette. The baguette blade insert is suitable for right-handers as standard; for left-handers, simply bend the top metal part to the other side. Hold the knife slightly sideways over the fully proofed dough pieces and cut parallel diagonals, scoring only the skin of the dough; the flaps will stick together and only open smoothly in the oven. The right cutting technique depends on hydration, flour content, kneading intensity, time and baking process; follow the instructions in the recipe. An instruction video shows how to insert the blade so that the curvature of the blade exactly follows the curvature of the insert. You can use this to flexibly refine your breads - from straight cuts to distinctive, curved cuts.
