Pathfinder Folding Skillet 

Dave, you're really the only guy out there who has a company with well-researched, tried-and-true gear for the common man. Thanks. Cheers.

Sir, you never cease to amaze. A good pan is never lost in a craftsman's hand . Thanks for sharing...

nicely designed product Dave. I'd like to suggest making a similar pan but out of plain carbon steel. they also are called blue steel. they need to be maintained like cast iron but are much lighter. they are more non stick than teflon if taken care of. most of the professional cooks I've worked with prefer blue steel over anything else. I carry a 10 inch blue steel pan into the woods. it'd be nice to have one with a folding handle.

Got the skillet and the wax coated bag. This and everything else I’ve bought from Selfreliance has been A+ stuff!

Amazing job with the skillet Dave! No frills, simple yet effective! What enjoying the outdoors is all about. Thanks!

i can't believe you busted out with fifteen bucks for that with a thick bottom. i'm sold.

Got mine a couple of years ago. Seasoned it just as you showed in this video. It is without a doubt my favorite cooking pan in the field. An outstanding piece of kit! 👍🏼👍🏼

Great skillet, great price, great tips.

I use flaxseed oil and repeat the process 11-12 times but use less oil only enough to coat the pan...was taught this way by my culinary arts teacher.......mainly so we would stop burning all the eggs and we're able to serve lunch right lol

Just placed my order. Look forward to cooking with it. Thanks Dave, much respect!!!

Thanks Dave, I own several of your items and have not been disappointed. I'm on my way to order one. Keep us the good work, I have learned so much from your videos, God bless.

Fantastic. I will be ordering one soon. I was stunned to see you could, I guess season, a stainless steel skillet. Amazing tips.

This skillet is amazing!! A proud owner of one!! A must have camping gear!! Solid product!!

Awesome, I will be adding this skillet to my cook kit. Thanks, Dave.

Great stuff, the product looks great and the handy tips you gave for stainless cooking issues, same, TY as always.

Looks like just what I've been looking for. Everyone that I've seen so far has been thin sheet metal that will have hot and cold spots. This Pathfinder skillet looks like it will heat and cook evenly - looks like a winner to me.

Alrite Dave, after watching your video I’m finally sold on it. I was debating between the msr but I went ahead with the pathfinder since it’s got a beautiful lid 👍

EXACTLY what I have been looking for!! Thanks Dave and watch for my purchase request soon!

just purchased thanks Dave looking forward to first try

I've been looking for a quality skillet like this for camping. thanks Dave.

Very nice skillet, great job seasoning, and cooking over open fire!

Hi Dave, here in Australia I have 1. I like that the pan is heavier than the handle so it wont tip over on my Solo Lite stove. They are a good combination. Your tips coating the pan & not overheating it was very helpful advice & much appreciated. Yes I do love my Pathfinder Skillet with lid. Best on the market. Great design & construction.

Nice. Thanks again mr. Dave.

I finally got the chance to take the skillet out along with the solo stove titan and it’s a nice combo 👍

Ordered... I have been waiting for this w/folding handle.... Amazing deal

Great price! Ill be ordering one for sure! Thanks Dave!

Great demo. 👍

Dave I have an addiction of watching your videos.

you should make a whole kitchen set of these. would store so much better in my apartment kitchen, nevermind a pack.

Really nice. Can't beat the price. I'll definitely be ordering one for sure!

Love the cooking videos Dave

Awesome tips! I’ve always despised cooking with stainless steel pans, now I know I’ve just been going about it wrong. 👍

As it happens I am looking for a skillet for camping. This is it. Will be down to the store next week hopefully. Thanks

Great video David! Informative 👌🏽

That is too cool!! Great job. And the price point is remarkable!!

I learn something new ever day. Great product at a great price.

absolutely right I had this treatment on my channel for a while now and one tip I always like to share is never heat the pan up to a higher temperature that what you treated it at...and thru continued use just repeat the process as needed because we all know that a good ole campfire does not have a temperature control...lol. it a learned practice to regulate that temperature. I am excited about that skillet...and am headed that way to check it out....this could be the answer to my 2 light weight stainless steel versions...very thin but kinda feeble...lol.

I will be picking this up!

They are awesome!

Great video, learned new stuff and will order one

Its about time you came out with a skillet lol, you definately out did yourself on price and thickness! Good job Dave!!

Just what I am looking for...going over to order. Thanks.

Nice to see rivets instead of spot welding

great looking skillet

Brilliant. If you can master the art of seasoning a pan, you will have pans that work for life. No more teflon, no more pans that "wear out". When they get too crusty just sand them down with very fine emery paper, and re-season them. Im trying to do this with aluminium with zero success.

Great vid!

Just got mine. Replaced a aluminum one with so many dents that the handles are sketchy at best. Can't wait to get it!

I love the one I have . you done great with this one

Great tip" Thank you for sharing.

I was wrong last night on Facebook when I compared this to the msr alpine... This is more like the primus campfire series. I commend wildernessoutfitters on an OUTSTANDING price point!

Thank you for how to season ss frying pan correctly. I will be ordering one of your pans shortly. Thanks.

Good lookin' skillet at the right price.Thanks for the info.ZZ.

Picked up my one today, looking forward to getting it on the fire😃

brilliant bit of kit mate thank you mine is fanfiction

that's a good deal....been using my old pan mess kit from the army....need one of those..!!

Looks cool, buddy.

Dave you keep taking all my money!!!

$15????? PLEASE TAKE MY MONEY!!! Thanks for the cooking tips too. They make a lot of sense.

ty for the cooking tips..........

excellent!

Dave, I wanted to wait till the video ended to see that I’m not missing anything and I’m glad I did because when you said fifteen bucks I said “ahha”… The price is great. You probably don’t even remember but I’ve been a subscriber since 2008. Back then you were unknown. I remember you had a video where you handmade arrow cases and tried to sell them for pennies through YT and you barely had 200 subscribers (that's 200, not 200 thousand!). Sure come a long way! I’m just not a massive comment maker since most often it’ll only open the door to trolls. What I wanted to say is that for many years I neglected to buy anything from Titanium because of the price but lately (planning a backpacking trip in Scotland) I finally bought a pot and silverware from titanium and to be honest I doubt I’ll ever go back to stainless steel. It’s just really hard to beat the weight difference. For the same weight as my very small MSR pot I can now have a bigger pot, frying pan, lid and two sets of forks, spoons and knives and honestly it may still weigh less. My question then is how come you don’t make more products from titanium? If I’m honest since I moved to England it wouldn’t be as easy for me to buy your products due to the shipping involved but nonetheless my question is still valid. Is it a question of not liking titanium or is it a question of cost?

perfect timing , we just threw away a crappy old one we used camping. Will order one for sure :)

I'm very impressed.

wow great price! I will be ordering one for sure

looking forward to the next common man priced Kit item, you hit the price point on the head. My tip money at the end of the day can cover that no problem.

got to love it. very good tool i evenly spaced 6 peices of charcoal and cooked breakfast thanks well worth it. ps. good presentation. M

nice tips

Hi David just found it in the uk thanks gerat video

can you make a pot that goes with it that this pan can be used as the lid

I made my wife watch this video to learn how to properly cook some eggs. Thanks Dave,and ordering one asap!

Yeah so hopefully once payday comes back around I'll be ordering one, or two, of these. The 1st can't come soon enough.

Cant believe the quality of this pan for 15 bucks. 305 stainless, thick bottom, rivets and folding handle...helluva deal. You guys cant be makin much off this. I'm definitely gettin one.

For those of you that don't know, at his site you can find the skillet with a lid now, for just under 20 bucks USA. I've got one and love it.

Hi mate great video i have just purchased one in the uk do you have to burn the oil before every cooking session or just the once Atb iain.

Awesome! Kind of want to pick one up. Would really prefer if it was aluminium though, not as tough but crazy light

Folks, let me tell ya, I bought this because of the price mainly but was a litle skeptical of the "substantial" part. I'm happy to say he UNDERSTATED it! I looked and looked EVERYWHERE and you guaranteed will not beat this anywhere on continental USA! Follow the instructions exactly as he says on seasoning it and it works great. ONE THING THO, do not use even plastic spatulas ONLY WOOD! I was surprised but using a plastic spatula made my next eggs and sausage breakfast stick and I had to "re-season" it again. You cannot go wrong with this. UPDATE: Found out why it stuck using Plastic! Wasn't the plastic. I cooked directly on the coals that time instead of the grate I normally use. It happened again when I cooked on the coals directly. STILL the best deal you can get. Re-seasoned a second time and used grate consistently and never happened again.

You had me at $15!

Sweet!

you definitely can't beat that price. I thought you was gonna say at least $35. awesome skillet dave

looks like a great pan. and the price is right. if i did not already own an awesome pan made by Bank's Fry Bake CO. then i would certainly look at getting yours :)

Dave, when getting back from a trip, do you recommend putting it in the dishwasher? Just ordered the pan today. Thanks

I will take your advices!

Looks like a great piece of kit. Dave do you think you can come out with some british like mess tins in stainless? They would make a great companion to your stainless canteen.

I'm buying one, this looks way better than the 10 dollar non stick from walmart, also could you give some info about the rot iron spit looking thing that was next to the fire, maybe do a video about it. Thanks Dave .

So, after seasoning I should not need to use oil to cook any of my food? How often should the skillet be re-seasoned?...I presume only when it begins to loose it’s non-stick qualities?

OK you blew my mind once again !! looks like I'm getting a new pan! need more of the lighter bank line...... probably should get a knife to cut it lloll !! blessings sir !!

Interesting, seems like a good quality pan for a decent price

now that's how you do it! $15 bucks! well done dave and crew

Good expectations, respected.

Wow, you can't beat that price for stainless steel, esp. with a folding handle. I'll be getting be of these.

Please make a bush pot just like this pan with a locking lid. Needs to be big enough to store stove inside when traveling. A pot and pan set would be great!

good

great looking skillet Dave - been shopping around and doing research/ reading reviews and comparing a few options but $15 and endorsed by you after testing it has me looking to my next paycheck -- 2 quick questions: its a 8in skillet ok, but What is the internal diameter and how deep is it ? this info is for nesting with my 6.3in Zebra Pot and i have a GSI Glacier tea kettle stowed inside pot) - I am sure it will fit but wondering how much wiggle room. And would a smaller handle (opposite of the handle) be a thoughtful possibility or more of a selftasked personal upgrade? Great video Dave, thanks!!!

I have a stainless steel pan that I seasoned by burning cooking oil in it over and over again.... was that a bad thing to do?... it seems to preform really well, I pretty much only cook steak fish and vegetables in it

Yes please :)

I WILL GET ONE!

Dave the best nonstick ing treatment oil for any cooking surface is to always use "flakseed"oil. heat treat it like you did here...whether it's cast iron or other stainless steel pans. same cooking methods applies. but the finish the natural patina it takes on is a shine darkened black like tarnish an wood utensils used always will definitely be non stick patina for as long as one keeps it in good cooking practice for sure. What's the width an depth of this skillet? if you would care to letting me know,I definitely would appreciate it. it looks high quality,it does.

I am getting good use out your carbon steel skillet. Can you make a folding handle version of that skillet?

excellent price!!

I can't find the pan to order it. The link takes me to the Pathfinder store at Amazon but no fry pan. I'll go to the web site.
