Subject: RE: BS: Iron cookware (frying pan)
Hello, gnu. You said is your first post that arthritis keeps you from listing a big skillet by the handle alone. Here's a link to images of iron skillets:

As you can see, some of them have a handy tab opposite the handle so you can lift them with two hands. (of course using a hot pad for the hand on the tab)

The danger that you might get terrible burns if you drop a skillet that only has one handle far outweighs any concerns about finish and brand name.

They're all skillets, and they're all going to fry food. Buy the brand that's designed to be safe for you.
