Box-cutter Lame?
I was in Smart and Final yesterday checking out the plastic storage containers. I bought sizes from one quart (for sourdough) to 12 quarts (for grains), including dough-rising sizes.
Office supplies were nearby, and they had a box-cutter that uses a single-edged razor blade. It was seventy-nine cents, including one blade. Got me thinking about my other box cutters.
Has anyone used box cutters as lames? I have a good supply of razor blades, and the price was right, so I bought one. I've been slashing using bare-naked razors, but this will clothe it a bit.
Oh, yeah, the directions say, "WARNING: Blades must be used in a blade-holding tool. When using, wear appropriate clothing including gloves and safety glasses."
