Ships immediately! July 2024 shipment! Popular Naguri item! Brand new, unused! Beautiful as a dish, a detachable-handle iron frying pan, Its name is "Hand-Forged Dish Gridle" Without using molds or presses, "hand forging" shapes the iron by hand using a wooden mallet and hammer. Comparing it with the finished product, they heat and hammer the iron one by one by hand. The work of adjusting the balance with their sensibility is truly that of an artist. Makoto Yasuzui, who manufactures agricultural tools using free forging since his grandfather's generation in Miki City, Hyogo Prefecture, the city of blacksmiths. He wants people to experience forged products in their daily lives. With that thought, he started the brand "millio," which offers kitchen and interior works utilizing hand-forging techniques, including the representative hand-forged frying pan. There are only two makers: Mr. Yasuzui and his apprentice. In between his main job of making agricultural tools, he forges iron every day until late at night, even on hot summer days, in front of a furnace heated to high temperatures. Hand-forged frying pans increase in strength with each hammering, improving heat conductivity and heat retention. The irregular hammer marks created by handwork allow oil to become familiar, preventing food from sticking. Because of its high heat retention, steaks finished by slowly cooking with residual heat are crispy on the outside and bring out the flavor of the meat. With high heat conductivity, it maintains high temperatures and heats evenly, making stir-fried vegetables incredibly delicious. The flavor is condensed, and the texture is crisp. To spread its appeal, he and his wife, Sachi, work together, exhibiting at craft fairs in various locations. They sincerely listen to the voices of customers they meet there and create various products by brainstorming together. Thanks to SNS, which started based on customer advice, it became popular among camping enthusiasts, and now it's a popular brand with a one-year waiting list from order. Responding to this attitude of sincerely listening to customer voices and the sincerity in creating works, talented companions gather around Mr. Yasuzui, including experienced campers, leather craftsmen, and sewing craftsmen, and they continue to create "new value."
