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

 I LOVE this rolling pin! February 11, 2010

This rolling pin is the bees knees! It works incredibly well for making perfect circles. The only flaw is sometimes i like to roll in a baking pan (for easy clean up) and it doesnt fit inside! so i have to roll on the counters. which isnt really a big deal just a little nuisance.

I happened onto this rolling pin a few years ago. The search for the ultimate rolling pin might have ended there but my curiosity continued. I have several kinds, sizes and shapes of rolling pins. Dare I tell my mother that the milk glass rolling pin that has been in the family for 3 generations is still stored. Naahhhh!! this rolling pin is wonderful to use. Hint of the day...buy one for yourself, for any of your children that bake, and one for your dearest friend, this is a gift that can not go wrong. But here it is - use it, use it often.
By using the rolling pin often keeps the wood oiled nicely!
Enjoy!
Great heft and weight, but a little big December 24, 2009

I was surprised at the size of this rolling pin. It's bigger than I expected, but that's not really a complaint. I love this thing! It's much easier to use than a pin with handles.

 Nice, but December 9, 2009

I bought this for use in my home where a lot of baking is done. While it is nicely made, it is much narrower than others I've looked at, and lighter in weight. It is probably best for a small woman's hand, and not where a man will be using it. I was diappointed, ended up giving it away, and buying a different one.
