Candle Wick Trimmer, Matte Black Stainless Steel

Trim the wick to a quarter inch before every burn and your candle burns cleaner, slower and without black smoke.

• The tool candle makers use: the angled head reaches the bottom of a deep jar and the tray catches the trimmed wick.
• Stainless steel, matte black: heavy in the hand, easy to wipe, made to sit on the shelf next to the candle.
• Pays for itself: a trimmed wick burns evenly, so a 9 oz soy candle gives you its full 50 to 60 hours.

Every candle label says trim the wick to a quarter inch. Almost nobody does, because scissors do not reach and the wick ends up in the wax. This trimmer fixes that. The angled cutting head reaches into the deepest jar, the flat tray catches the trimmed piece, and the long handles keep your hand out of the way.

A trimmed wick means a smaller, steadier flame: no black smoke, no soot on the rim, no mushrooming, and a candle that lasts as long as the label says. It is the single best thing you can buy for the candles you already own.

Matte black stainless steel with a weight that feels right. Wipe it and it is done.
