I admittedly know nothing about Dixie Foundry, but I would guess someone used one of their skillets to make this lousy ugly repro.

Avert your eyes, this is really nasty...

[edit]I meant recast not repro... my brain is on vacation.[/edit]

My vote goes to horrific RECAST.....   [smiley=yikes.gif] [smiley=yikes.gif]

I have seen pics of real Dixie Foundry skillets, and they don't look anything like this poor monstrosity.....

Maybe the buyer just collects recast pieces.  :)

I can't imagine buying any product so grossly deformed.  There will always be better uses for my money.  My wife and her sister make sure of that! ;D

Hello Claudia. P.T. Barnum said 'there is a sucker born every minute'. And here on WAGS we quite often are reminded of that.  ;D
