Product Description
What doorchestra drummers and bakers have in common? Vic Firth tools of course! Vic Firth was a timpanist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra for nearly fifty years. For the past thirty-five years he has turned his attention to manufacturing the finest drumstick in the world. In keeping with his exacting standards, the same woodturning expertise is now being employed to produce peppermills and salt mills of the highest quality. More recently he has turned his attention to rolling pins. This lightweight pin is the preferred tool for chefs when it comes to rolling out thin pie crusts. It's tapered from the middle out to both ends, allowing easy rotation of the pin around the dough for rolling out perfect circles.
Amazon.com Review
Rolling out proper pie crusts that are both tender and flaky is a snap with this pin. Tapered from the middle to both ends, it rolls out dough thinly by pushing it from the middle. And it rotates easily around the dough for making perfect circles--a virtue for pizzas, also. It's unfinished so that, over time, flour penetrates the wood's pores--making the pin less sticky than finished pins. --Fred Brack

French rolling pin, an inmates best friend. July 19, 2010

4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Great blunt object! No one would suspect that it could be such a dangerous weapon. I smuggled one into a prison. No more shankings for me. I told this one inmate "Ill shove it up your ass if your not careful, and if your really stupid ill shove it up there sideways." It has a tendency to snap under heavy stress though so I can only give 4 stars.

Not only does it work like a charm, but it is well made--smooth, heavy rock maple, and gently tapering ends. Simple by design, artful in its execution.
Great tool, you can't go wrong May 15, 2010
Looking 4 (So Cal)
My old rolling pins were clunky and old and not used very much. Purchased this one based on others positive reviews and they were correct. Quality product, cleans and stores easily and does what it supposed to do.
A life changer! April 15, 2010
lulu (Seattle)
I've always loved pie, but the making was often a chore, especially with arthritis. With my VF pin I feel like I am gliding across the dough...amazing. Grab the pin and a pastry cloth, and I can roll out a large double crust in 2-3 minutes, humming all the time. Love the size, love the weight, love the silky feel of the polished wood in my hands. It's time to hang my Mother's roller on the wall as antique, this is MY pin.Vic Firth French Rolling Pin Try it with Regency Pastry Cloth & Rolling Pin Cover Set, but throw away the pin cover. You won't need it.
