Nothing Cooks Like Our Carbon Steel
Small Batch Handmade Cookware
A note on availability
Thank you so much for joining us on this journey. At Northwest Skillet Company, we are a small, two-person team, with Peter carefully handcrafting each piece of cookware from the heart. For us, small-batch production is both a necessity and a joy. Every piece of cookware is crafted with purpose and care, coming out in limited quantities throughout the year.
A recent review from America’s Test Kitchen brought new attention to our work. While we’re doing our best to keep up with this new demand, small-batch production means our stock may be limited at times. But rest assured, each piece is made with dedication and pride, and we believe it’s worth the wait.
For those times when the inventory is scarce we appreciate your patience. We will notify our Cookware List by email when fresh pans are available.
Thank you for your patience and for choosing to support us. We’re so grateful for your trust in our work and can’t wait for you to experience it in your kitchen!
Our commitment is to quality not quantity.
We feel incredibly fortunate to do what we love each day. We’ve chosen to keep our business intimate, focusing on crafting cookware with the utmost care while providing exceptional customer service.
We don't intend to make the most skillets, but we do intend to make the best.
Handcrafted in Oregon by Blacksmith Peter Clark
I am the sole craftsman behind Northwest Skillet Company. I create each piece by hand in the blacksmith's shop at Homestead Springs Farm & Forge in Northeast Oregon along the Oregon Trail. My work is unique in combining the age old arts of blacksmithing and metal spinning to bring you pans and utensils with unsurpassed performance, design and craftsmanship.
What our customers are saying...
"The two skillets I own are not only works of art but masterfully made and cook like a dream. Bought mine because I was wanting something lighter than cast iron. They have met and exceeded my expectations." M.M.
"Just wanted to write you and let you know how much we love the fry pan we purchased from you.
