  1. They use rotor discs. I hope I didn't miss it, but are they lacking a step of removing impurities like Lodge does? I don't think their manufacturing process adds much value until the sanding. It just adds cost.

  2. I could see if they were using lathes or machining but they're not they're literally using sanding discs on a Dremel. Like who can't do that? The skillets are very unique looking but I'm sorry from someone knowledgeable I would never pay that much for their work. If anything I'd probably just make my own cast iron and sand it myself lol
