You're new to cast iron.
Start here. It's small, light, and designed for something you already make every day. No learning curve — just better eggs.
You still keep a nonstick around for eggs.
You don't need it anymore. The No.5 is 100% cast iron, gets more nonstick over time, and has no coatings to scratch or replace. Ever.
You want to switch to cast iron from ceramic or carbon steel.
Good choice. Cast iron holds heat better, builds seasoning that lasts, and won't need replacing. The No.5 is the easiest place to start.
Absolutely. The No.5 is optimized for eggs, but it's a great everyday pan—quick sautés, warming tortillas, toasting nuts and spices, melting cheese, wilting greens, or making a sauce. Anything small and fast.

Yes—all cast iron skillets, including chef skillets, work on induction. Cast iron is naturally magnetic, which is exactly what induction cooktops require (even if the bottom of the pan doesn't have full contact).
Yes—ready to cook right out of the box. Every pan arrives with several coats of organic oil seasoning. No chemical coatings, no PFAS of any kinda.
The nonstick surface only gets better the more you cook and will continue to develop from the oils you cook with.
The No.5 is our second smallest skillet and the only one with curved sidewalls—perfect for 1-2 person meals, eggs, and sides. Field makes six skillet sizes for any purpose.
Most modern cast iron is heavy and rough—sold "as cast" to save on costs. Field skillets are machined smooth, modeled on the best vintage cookware—thinner walls, less weight, and a surface that builds great seasoning fast. It's how cast iron used to be made, done even better.

an Egg Pan.
Discover why we made the No.5 Chef Skillet—the pan we always wanted on our stoves, and the one we want to hand to every friend who can’t quite give up their last nonstick pan.
