Is the handle oven-safe?

The handle is metal, and oven safe. I've had the pan in the oven on self-clean cycle (to redo the seasoning) and there was no damage to the handle or anything else on the pan.

Yes, it is oven-safe. The handle is made of the identical carbon steel as the body of the pan.

Yes. The whole pan is steel, no insulation. The handle seems to be the same thickness as the pan itself. The handle is riveted to the pan. I have used it both in the baking and broiling sections with no problems. The handle does get very hot, same as the pan. Hope this helps.

The handle is metal with a heat resistant silicon grip. It is not oven safe.

I don't recall (I gave mine to my granddaughter) but I seem to recall the handle was all stainless steel. If so, you're good to go - in or out of the oven.

Due to the plastic on handles and lids I would not use these in an oven; the plastic could warp or melt and cause burns or damage to your oven. There is a set available with steel handles which is supposed to be oven safe.

I only use mine on top of the stove. I am sure you should NOT put it in the oven as the handle would melt.

The handle will not be oven safe, so removing the handle would be sufficient.

I would have to say NO. The Handle and Cover Grip are coated with a heat resistant soft rubber/plastic for lack of not knowing the materials name. Looks and feels like an oven would melt and our burn the handles. One never knows with what they can do these days, though I personally would refrain.

Unless you're using unusually high heat, completely safe. If you do pull the silicone handle off, be careful handling it right out of the oven, it's riveted to the pan so it will become one with your hand otherwise. Nobody wants to be known as "Pan Hand."

No, but the handle had no problem holding up to the 450 degree heat while wrapped in a towel and heavy duty foil while seasoning in the oven.

Unless the handle is heated in the oven...as with all handles...these handles will be cool to the touch while cooking on the stovetop. You will love this cookware style!!

The handle stays cool when cooking on the stove top. I've never used it in the oven.

My Vollrath set is entirely in stainless steel, including handles so I suppose everything to be oven-proof but I have not tried it.

I have used it briefly under the broiler to brown cheese omelets...it works perfectly. I am not sure about in the oven for a longer period, and do not know what temperature the handle would take.

Yes indeed, but don't grab the handle without some serious protection. I forgot once. Also it may not fit in your oven with the large handle ....

The handles look like some kind of plastic material. Ours works great on the stove, never thought about putting them in the oven. Good luck

No, the handles are not oven proof. It's the only bad thing I can say about the set. Other than that I absolutely love them. The quality is very good. I use my cast iron in the oven.

I have not had reason to expose the handle to different heat than the scraper. It does okay when I leave it on top of the oven.
