I really hope it's just one anon forcing this shit and there aren't multiple people who spent that much on a fucking cast iron skillet.

its artisanally forged in portland by master craftsman using the finest steel and rod. its preseasoned with organic flaxseed and never has to be seasoned again.

it has patented OCTO-POUR spouts so you can pour soups and liquids in any direction.

it goes from stove to ov in an instant

>funny how technology works isnt it?
It's the same actual material, so funny how "studies" can be utter crap. This pan's claim to fame should be nothing more than an better polished surface, such that after you season it, it should be smoother and more likely to be closer to a nonstick nature. Period.

An expert cast iron manufacturer said the rough surface is the reason why they can be seasoned better than other pans in Adam Ragusas video on cast iron.

[Anonymous No.14493722]

For that price, why not buy two Le Creuset enameled cast iron? I mean I love my cast iron but since I upgraded they've just sat unused for at least 5 years. Sometimes I'll pull out the DeBuyer but if you can save $50 a month there's no reason to not have enameled, and bare CI has no advantages over it other than price.

[Anonymous No.14493733]

>>14493719

There's a reason old Wagners and Lodges are coveted by CI nerds, the smoother surface from the older manufacturing process makes them better suited to cooking than the modern shit does.

What the hell kind of newfangled overengineered monstrosity of a skillet is that?

Also, the first thing you should cook in your cast iron pan after seasoning it is always a fatty cut of meat. Streaky bacon, well marbled ribeye, whatever.

outside of a chef knife and a cleaver, the only utensil Im going to spend any decent money on is a dutch oven. I'd like an antique one myself as well, if I bring food over to my girlfriends family or friends its part presentation and maybe a bit of a conversation piece.

It's absolutely beautiful. I would be so paranoid to ruin the seasoning, I'd feel I would want to season it 3 more times with flaxseed oil... is this autistic or a better safe than sorry dilemma?
