Doesn’t say they are suitable for open fires but I’d assume they are.

Probably one for car camping as they’re pretty heavy.

I swear by iron frying pans, once they're seasoned their non stick qualities are far better than Teflon without all the environmental issues.

Maybe just me but I struggle with frying eggs on cast iron, even well seasoned. I do like it though.

I'm guessing it just you Bam, I've found it impossible to get eggs to stick in a well seasoned iron pan. Even after frying onions that release sugars that would make ordinary Teflon frying pans sticky. The trick is to get the oil hot before putting any food in. Once the pan is seasoned it should never be cleaned using detergent ever again and at first will need additional stove top seasoning at 170 degrees C for about 90 minutes

I've got a well seasoned pan, to be fair, I've spat my dummy so not used it for eggs for a while. We have a few domestic ones that I don't like either for fried eggs.
