scoring tool
Line-etching instrument
A scoring tool creates shallow cuts or grooves in material without cutting all the way through.
In crafts and construction, it weakens paper, cardboard, or drywall along a line for clean folding or breaking: Run the scoring tool along the fold line before bending.
In baking, a scoring tool (or lame) slashes bread dough before baking to control expansion.
