The Reforged Frontier Frying Pan
Since 1819, Jacob Bromwell has crafted metal goods designed to endure. The Reforged Frontier Frying Pan carries that legacy forward — not in steel like the originals, but in premium 304 stainless steel, chosen for strength, purity, and uncompromising durability.
This is frontier grit — refined.
Why 304 Stainless Steel?
304 stainless steel is the gold standard in professional kitchens for a reason.
It offers:
- Exceptional corrosion resistance
- Non-reactive cooking surface
- Long-term structural integrity
- Clean, modern performance
Unlike coated pans that chip, flake, or degrade, 304 stainless steel holds its integrity for decades. It won’t leach. It won’t warp under proper use. And it doesn’t rely on synthetic coatings to perform.
It’s honest metal.
Old-School Production Techniques
The Reforged Frontier Pan isn’t mass-pressed on an assembly line. It’s shaped and finished in small batches, with visible hammering that gives each piece depth and character.
The hammered surface isn’t decoration — it’s identity.
Every pan reflects the human hands behind it. No two are identical. That’s the point.
Built for Real Cooking
This is a pan designed for high-heat searing, caramelization, and performance cooking.
- Perfect for steak, chicken, and vegetables
- Excellent for building fond and pan sauces
- Oven-safe and stovetop-ready
- Compatible with gas, electric, and induction
Stainless steel rewards technique. It gives you precision and control. When properly preheated, it releases food beautifully and produces the kind of crust and flavor development that nonstick pans simply can’t achieve.
This is cookware that respects the craft of cooking.
A Working Heirloom
The Reforged Frontier Frying Pan doesn’t wear out — it develops character.
The brushed steel surface will subtly evolve with use. The hammered exterior will catch light differently over time. It won’t deteriorate; it will mature.
This is the difference between buying cookware and investing in something permanent.
In a world of disposable kitchenware, permanence is rare. And valuable.
Why “Reforged”?
Because heritage deserves renewal.
The Reforged Collection revisits historic design language from Jacob Bromwell and rebuilds it with modern materials and tighter tolerances. It honors the frontier spirit while delivering contemporary performance.
It is not nostalgia.
It is evolution.
Care & Longevity
To ensure decades of use:
- Preheat before cooking
- Use oil or fat appropriately
- Hand wash or dishwasher safe (though hand washing preserves finish)
- Avoid harsh abrasives
304 stainless steel is built for hard use — and built to last.
The Frontier Mindset
The frontier was about resilience. About tools that didn’t fail. About objects built once and built right.
The Reforged Frontier Frying Pan carries that mindset into today’s kitchen.
Not coated.
Not disposable.
Not trendy.
Just forged steel — made to endure.
