Weird handle
The handle feels awkward. The wok heats up very fast and is easy to cook with. I think I would prefer a slightly larger loop handle on each side rather than the overly long handle on one side and the small loop handle opposite.
Due to the hand-forged nature of our carbon steel cookware and with each piece being slightly unique, we do not have a custom fitting lid for our wok.
With any piece of carbon steel cookware heat will eventually make its way to the handle. However, more often than not if making a quick stir-fry or searing a piece of protein the handle will not get hot.
We think that the handle of our wok is too handsome to cover up with a sleeve, so we do not have a custom fit sleeve for this piece. We recommend using our full-grain leather or suede potholder however.

This has got to be, hands down, the best hammered carbon steel wok I have ever used. Light weight and even heating make stir fry a breeze!
Perfect.! My biggest surprise with the wok is that it is not as heavy as the other skillets. I love that about this wok.!
They were a hit with the two recipients who are the best cooks in the family and who were wishing for the woks and other cookware. All good.
Made a nice chicken stir fry! Came out delicious! Thumbs 👍!
