What shape is the handle? I.e. Is it rounded or does it have that annoying cutout so many have now days?

this is not what i bought...what i bought was the Emeril by All-Clad E92002 Hard Anodized Nonstick Fry Pans 8"& 10" and they suck and I feel strongly that they do have the handles that you are talking about, but this on fry pan looks to have the same handles as the full set of Tri-Ply Stainless Steel with out non stick. It's solid with an rounded underneath with somewhat of gruve on top for your thumb.

If you mean is it sculptured ("cut out") on the top surface than yes it is. The handle is like a slightly chunkier version of a regular All-Clad pan handle. So if you've used All-Clad before and like the handle it'll be fine, if it's not a style you enjoy then it may not be the pan for you.

The handle is rounded on the bottom & has a concave groove on the top for the thumb. There is an oval cutout near the end for hanging. And yes, there is a "Y" shaped split where the handle is attached to the pan. If you are concerned about food gunking & building up here, I have found it not to be. I like that it is NOT nonstick. This pan has even heat & works very well on my induction range. My only complaint is that the large fry pans are quite heavy - but then I have severe arthritis & am nearing 70. All & all, I love these pans (I've a full set).

Its flattened and curved with a center groove. It must be the annoying cutout you are speaking of.

The handle is round with a smooth finish. What you might see is light reflection which makes appear having sides.Mine ara all smooth, round. I checked. Regards, Jim

The handle is not perfectly round. It is grooved for your fingers. The base is 1.5 inches from front to back and 1 and 3 16ths from side to side.

Mine has a straight edge. It is very sturdy with a long handle (bigger than I thought it would be), heavy weight overall and very attractive. It is made in China.

I agree with two other answers, but I can only speak to the one I own. My handle has a dimple on the inside at the top attachment of the handle and has a hollow space slightly at the bottom attachment of the handle. so my answer would be that the handle is solid for the most part and has about maybe 10% of the handle area at the bottom attachment being hollow.

It's been awhile since I did it, but the curve of the handle is now opposite of the picture. Hope that helps.

The handle is plastic and very grippy. We store it in a knife block with Wusthof knives and it looks ok.

It's hollowed. I was going to write that it was solid, but decided to double check. The edges are foled back so that there is a very narrow slit in the back. If it helps, the handle is very sturdy and until I double checked, I thought the it was solid. My fingers never feel pinched when opening the cabinet.

It imprints triangular shapes into the tortilla. ten they have to be cut. I also so the latest model of these in the store this past week (11/30/2013), and noticed they redesigned the handle. The old model's handle broke easily. So, hopefully you can find the newer model.

No it is round. And I might add a very good one. We have used this a lot especially in the winter for soups and chili and chicken and dumplings. Clean up is easy. I have several friends that have one in other colors and they also like theirs.

I got one as a gift a couple of years ago. The handle is the one with the cutouts (a circle and a curve). The color is red (and it still looks beautiful; I use the thing every day).The only thing I had noticed was that I got one with a press-fit lid with an O-ring, while they were saying they had switched to a screw-on lid. I can safely say, however, I haven't spilled a drop yet.

It is very slightly rounded at the edges. It's like the sharp point is rounded off.

No, its rounded. The photos LOOK like it is flat but its not. About 70% of mine contacts the dashboard.

The one I purchased is round, not oval, but I use it a lot and like it very much.
