de Buyer MINERAL B - Stekepanne - 26 diameter x 4 cm - 1.67 L - rund

As much as i would love to give the pan a 5 star rating i have one great concern. The handle gets really hot. I have several other carbon steel pans, cast iron pans and stainless steel pans. None of which do the handles get really hot. I have tough hands when it comes to hot things, i have been cooking over 40 years. Other than that i love the pan.

So far so good, after doing a potato-skin seasoning, the pan is developing a nice patina/coating. One point of disappointment though, the handle on this pan is coated. De Buyer in an email reply (timely I will add) limited the time and temperature the pan could be in an oven, no more than 15-minutes (if my recollection is correct) and no heat above 400°. I might have missed it, but it should be made clear in the description. I can't understand why this coating (an extra task/cost in manufacturing) when it limits the usefulness. I like the pan, I'll keep it, but had I known, I would have shopped elsewhere. Also, unable to upload images via the usually buggy Safari 10.6

Just received my skillet. It is my first carbon steel and love the design. So far, not issues with food sticking. I am confident this positive vibe will only get better.

Pan arrived damaged. The expoxy coated handle had a number of chips. The bottom of the pan was also scuffed, likely because it was stacked with other pans.
