[Sca-cooks] Cookie Cutters

[Terry Decker]

Eisen is the generic term for iron and can cover ore, ingot, swords, 
daggers, horseshoes, branding irons, flat irons, etc.  The diminutive form 
and the described use suggests that this is a crimper or a dough (bench) 
knife.  I've actually used a dough knife crimping and cutting stollen 
braids.
