I bought one a while back.
Have not used it yet but Lodge is damn solid.
In fact I just picked up a 12 inch skillet at the Swap Meet (dumps).
They left it right on the ledge before the dumpster.
I would have left it there....but it was a Lodge. Thats a big skillet for sure. Its hard to tell. Its the same diameter as my Cabelas 12 inch. but the Lodge site calls it a 10. Maybe Cabelas measures the rim and Lodge measures the bottom. Maybe could it be a “No. “ 10? i think there is a chinese version you might be able to get cheaper

All great ideas. Anyone peruse the Lodge website and see that Blacklock Line of CI they are producing? http://www.lodgemfg.com/story/meet-blacklock-lodge-s-new-premium-line

Cool looking handles. Bet they work, up to a point as they say in the piece.
Don't know the make of grandma's (great grandma's?) that our family still has, but it is a heck of a lot thinner than the newer lodge I have. Nice to see them coming out with a thinner model

I have a mess of family hand me down cast iron, and started collecting cast iron waffle irons about 15 years ago. I have seen Lodge sold in stores, and since I have never seen an old lodge cast iron anything assumed they were chineese and recent manufacture but it seems they have been casting cookware since around 1910. Anyone have a Lodge from the easrly days? All my good stuff, Griswold, etc have smooth internal surfaces, lodge seems to be more of an as-cast finish and rough.
On tomatoe acid affecting seasoning, from my experience I haven't seen this, and suspect a poor seasoned pan might be the reason? Good, old seasoned iron seems bulletproof from my experience.

Might have to stop in a Williams Sonoma to check it out.
It is amazing how light my great grandmothers 1930's Griswold skillet is compared to Lodge's. Ill say one thing though you drop a lodge and it will dent or chip the floor. Drop the older CI and its just as likely to crack and break.

Well, I might prefer to get hit with the old family skillet than my Lodge, that's for sure.
But I'd really rather not get whacked with either.
Or drop one of them. Probably more than a few dents in some old wooden kitchen floors from them

That's a nice setup for a nice price. Thanks for sharing FC.
We've got several Lodge pieces and some Wagners. We bought them all new and they have served well. The deep skillet like the one pictured was bought at some garage sale or something. I don't know what brand that one is. The rest of the stuff here has brand names on it save for Grandma's small iron skillet. Maybe both of them are Lodge too but no markings I've ever seen.

Understood, and although I grew up around the old family fry pan, I've made a mistake or two myself.  That is the good thing about cast, hard to ruin it. Seasoning gets bad...............reseason it. Burnt something in it, clean it out and reseason it. Cooked and left acidic food in it, reseason it. Managed to get rust in it, remove the rust and reseason it. It's one of the reasons I'll always have it around. Can't do that when you overheat a teflon coated pan. Geno
