Wow! Love the rounded edges in the Smithy No.10 chef skillet…this is 3 or 4 egg perfect! Omelette! Small potato dishes …Smaller portion meals! Used right out of box with butter, or EVOO ! 99% stick free….cleans with just warm water. Then dry add EVOO layer and store! Works better than my HEXCLAD!!!!! I will eventually collect them all…the only cookware you will need in your lifetime!

I like the weight... I have only used it a few times and see the color change happening... My hope is it will darken over time. The workmanship is nice.

Cooking with cast iron is different from other frying pans. At first I didn’t like the pan as food was sticking but after using the pan I learned how. I think you should include a video on how to cook with cast iron.

I was a bit skeptical until after I used this skillet. My range is a glass top. However I followed recommendations to heat the skillet slowly. Retains heat very well and cleanup is so easy. The lid fits well, and is lightweight. I use 1 drop of dawn and a scrubber to remove food reside after wiping with paper towels.

cooked once with it, shiny copper surface was gone after one use! it was so sticky that my food glued onto the pan and took off that layer and I thought it was non-stick. Now I need to use something abrasive like steel wool and clean the surface and season it again. It doesn't look good anymore. I expected more from a $180 pan. I am disappointed
