And also a hell of a lot harder to find than a Lodge you can get off amazon.

ETA: Unless you're willing to pay a hell of a lot more than a Lodge off Ebay.

Well to be fair, there are some Griswolds to be had cheaply if you know where to look.
I have also done my share of sanding the new lodges down and reseasoning them because of the coarse sand they use in their casting these days. I don't know why they have gone to this, but they are much less non stick initially than they were before the switch.
I'd rather work on old cast iron to restore it, and bring it back to serviceable than have to fix new cast iron that the factory decided to cut corners on.
