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
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.

Good French Rolling Pin August 3, 2008 Ashley E. Meece (College Park, Md United States) If you like French Rolling Pins, this one is pretty good. It arrived quickly and is exactly what I expected.
Excellent basic pin July 6, 2008 A. Sellers (Rockville, MD USA) I've been looking for a basic french rolling pin and this was the answer. Small and light, unlike my heavy, old rolling pin with metal in the center that kept rusting. Perfect for my pie crusts!
not a drumstick for sure July 4, 2008 K. Terry (KY) freaks me out a little that Vic Firth makes drumsticks and rolling pins. Bakers swear by it and, so do I!
Baker's Rolling Pin June 10, 2008 Carolyn Cooki (Camas, WA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was on my daughter's wish list; since then I've put it on my own wish list. It's a beautiful piece of wood (created by a famous maker of drum sticks), with just the right heft and feel. I also bought the set of rolling pin rings to go with it that allow you to roll dough perfectly level; they're a great combo.
Awesome rolling pin May 25, 2008 ougirlee (Oklahoma) Buy it! I bought this in January and can now make fantastic pizza dough and pie crust easily. This is the secret to all things in the kitchen that must be rolled out very thin. Absolutely love it!
