Smaller one is a Griswold No. 8, marked 704H.

Larger one is a Wagner Ware 11 3/4 Inch Skillet, with a “10” on the handle.

I managed to get them for $50 total. I can’t find exact matches online, but I think this is a good deal for these two. Is it?

      They do. It’s how I know its plenty hot enough to cook when I feel it start to get warm.

      Several companies even make handle covers in either fabric or silicone.

      I used to have a gas stove at my old house and yes the handle got hot. Our new house has an electric cooktop and the handle doesn’t get hit unless I’m cooking something for over 30 minutes. There’s very little “spill over” heat from the electric burner compared to gas.

      I liked having a gas range, but honestly electric has been great.
