I have been using cast iron my whole life and have 2 Lodge pieces, a skillet and griddle. Both have a slight curve or bow to the handle...I assume Lodge did this to make it easier to hold than the standard flat handle. I’ve always used a potholder or towel which have worked fine but thought I’d give these a try. BIG mistake! If you store your cast iron properly by lightly oiling after using, then you can imagine what happens when warm oil meets a loose fitting silicone holder...DANGEROUSLY slippery. After frying bacon, I tried to remove the skillet from the stove and skillet handle slipped right out of the silicone holder. Luckily, I was over the sink when it happened but had I not been, it could have resulted in serious burns. Would NOT recommend!
