This is why i use all cast iron and carbon steel. Its cheap, like me. Unless you decide you need something like Smithey or Stargazer lol. That shits crazy.No, but I have buyers remorse buying the ninja foodie pro set. It has a cast iron inlay that is easily scratched. The hexclad is safe with metal utensils. Plus if hexclad is used on hells kitchen, it must be a quality pan. Don't get me wrong, the ninja set I have is excellent for the home cook, but as a chef, I'm kinda hard on my pans.
