The Little Farmhouse Skillet is a 9-inch hand-forged carbon steel pan from Smithey, made by artisan blacksmiths in Charleston, South Carolina. At about 3.1 lbs it is lighter than a comparable cast iron skillet, so it heats faster and is easier to lift and flip with. A 1.5-inch depth and 16.75-inch handle-to-handle length make it a small pan for eggs, a single steak or chop, and side vegetables, or a helper pan for sauces and toasted nuts. It needs the same seasoning and care as cast iron, which is the main trade-off against nonstick rivals. Buyers rate it highly, and its main competition is other carbon steel pans that cost less but lack the hand-forged finish.
