what DOES the backside of your carbon pan look like?

[boomchakabowwow]

Well let see them. the carbon pan thread is great and I don't want to sully the content up with my shenanigans. the discussion compelled me enough to flip mine over to take a look. WHOA!! fairly rough! could use some steel-wooling for sure. I seriously don't care that much about the other side.

so what does the B-Side of your favorite pan look like? I threw in a DeBuyers handle-pic that was heated way beyond the warranty level, in my BBQ grill. it got kinda ugly, but still remains perfectly functional.

Big Blanc Creatives and Mineral B Omelette pan. I slide and shake the omelette pan alot, so bottom is pretty scarred.

The big one gets a lot more use than the little one.

DeBuyer became wobbly on induction so I am slowly building a stabilizing crust of black cake.
Apparently.

Y'all got some crusty ashy backsides. Might want to think about your butt scrubbing strategy.

take the flap disc on an angle grinder out to town if you want a shiny butt on your carbon

My pair of "28s". The extra-krusty older one was the house brand at Bridge Kitchenware from the pre-internet era, I suspect it's a DeBuyer, next to its more contemporary twin. Anyone know for sure who made those?

@MarcelNL I don't know what that upper knife is, but it is one of my top faves on this forum.

I need to take a chisel to mine.

It has become my favorite knife, i used to be hesitant to buy anything longer (excep a Yanagiba and Sujihiki) but the geometry works, the steel works, a truly great knife!
(and I'm in love with the looks of the handle)
