Careful with Chinese cast iron. They sneak lead into it or worse

Exactly. That's why you pay $165 for the Made in the USA Field cast iron pan.

It's cheaply made which is why they are thick and rough.

Back in the day they made them thin and smooth which is very difficult and expensive to do. This is why people still pay $200+ for 100-year old Wagners and Griswolds. And you can buy a brand new Field made just like back then for $165 brand new.

It's not the thickness, those old 100 year old Wagners and Griswolds are thinner so by that logic, they should have broken a long time ago. Not all cast iron is created equal. The quality of the metal, how the iron is cast, all of that goes into it. Field made a great 2-minute video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvFlS13ORqI
