Our patented Nitrided Carbon Clad® Woks feature a 3-layer clad construction, combining a nitrided carbon steel cooking surface with a responsive aluminum core.
Our wok is intentionally designed to be optimal for Western-style stoves (conventional gas, electric, induction). The shape and material thicknesses are designed to allow heat to concentrate at the base, while still transferring some heat up the sides, just like a traditional round-bottomed wok. This carefully balanced ratio of aluminum and carbon steel layer thicknesses also keeps our woks light, while helping to deliver conventional wok performance without a real wok burner.

What is Nitriding?
Nitrided carbon steel is heat-treated with nitrogen to harden the surface, making it more durable, rust-resistant, and a little less sticky in the beginning compared to plain carbon steel. Nitriding is not a coating, it’s a transformation of the steel’s surface by diffusing nitrogen into the steel.
Just like traditional carbon steel, it will still build seasoning over time and become increasingly stick-resistant as you cook. Nitriding doesn’t make it “super nonstick” right out of the box, but it does make those first few cooks a little easier.
Why a Pre-order?
As a growing business, starting new product lines can be challenging. Pre-orders help us gauge demand and purchase high cost inventory. This is essentially the model of Kickstarter, but by doing a pre-order launch on our website we are guaranteeing product fulfillment or your money back.
Here’s our general Pre-order Policy. The ship date listed is an estimate and may change as production progresses. If anything shifts, we’ll keep you in the loop. We’ll send an email update in the final stretch and when shipping begins. Please be sure to let us know if your address changes between the time of purchase and shipment. You may edit or cancel your order at any time before it ships.
