First - my bread baking level is experienced but far from advanced. I've baked only occasionally for years but a few months ago I got into at least weekly bread baking with Mark Bitten's No Knead bread ( no effort, delicious and so versatile and forgiving) and have progressed to taking Apollonia Poilane's Master Class. Poilane is considered the world's best bread and is credited with American's recent taste for crusty cottage style breads. I have been a huge fan of their bread since 1980 when I stumbled into their bakery in Paris. So I am now looking to fine tune my baking tools and wanted a lame knife and a dough knife but didn't want to spend a lot in case I decide I want another type, like a straight blade lame.I kept looking at wooden handled tools and thinking - bet that falls off the handle. Then I would look at metal ones, which all seem to be tube shaped, and think - bet that twists in the hand.It was another review that sold me on this set. The reviewer mentioned the quality and how the whisk is well secured with epoxy to keep water ( and mold) from getting into the handle.My set arrived today and I was immediately struck by the quality. Yes the handle is a tube, but it's large enough to give me a true grip ( with my mildly arthritic hands) and it has a bit - but not too much heft to it. The tines are heavy enough to last a lifetime.The lame is molded in one piece and will be easy to thoroughly clean.The bowl scraper is thicker than the one I found in a London restaurant supply place on that same 1980 trip and bought as a cheap souvenir but which became a favorite tool I still use. I didn't think I'd like a thick one, but this is flexible enough to fit in my bowls. It will get its share of use. The one thing I don't like is the very edge is a bit ragged - you can't really see it but can feel it. This could? hold bacteria.I already had a metal scraper just like this, but this one has measurements on it, which could be useful. It too is high quality and I'd give it higher praise if I didn't already have one.That weird little brown thing turns out to be a naugahyde sleeve for your spare razor blades, and fits the 5 of them in their individual envelopes. Nice to have a place for them.I already have a second set in my cart to gift my daughter with.If you are interested in learning to bake - and more fully use bread, whether you have never baked before or are pretty advanced, I highly recommend the Apollonia Poilane Master Class. She is a great communicator and clearly enjoys inspiring beginners as well as those with experience.Initially saw this type of dough whisk via an Instagram cookbook author. They were selling some w wood handles and initially I was going to buy but realized it was the same whisk that’s here on Amazon (not artisan-made) that people report falls apart and is hard to clean. The dough whisk in this package is perfect. It’s large, sturdy, and so easy to clean even when covered in the stickiest wettest dough. Way better than the other pod handle version! The blade, dough and bowl scrapers are all really nice, too. Nothing is flimsy and all looks well made. Blade comes w numerous replacement blades and a safety cover. Very happy with this purchase, recommend to anyone who’s making bread, makes the process more enjoyable to have good tools that are easy to clean.What a wonderful set for the price. Everything you need.Love it! Easy to use and sturdyNice set for baking; high quality stainless steel handles more durable and much easier to keep clean than wood with metal cap. Very pleased with purchase.Like the stainless whisk and lame. They’re great. Worth the extra money over wood handles.Great quality. Easy to handle.The bench scraper and the bowl scraper work well but the lame and dough whisk are not helpful. Plain razor blades work just as well as the lame which bends the razor blade and changes the way it scores from the way you intend. The french whisk is just useless
