RE: Stanley Base Camp Cook Set ~ My Compact Kitchen
The included fry pan is actually really good Zeke. The problem with making the stainless thicker is it doesn't address the problem that is inherent to stainless steel, it basically has no heat dispersion properties. That's why they need to layer it with another metal like copper or aluminium to allow for even heating.
Stainless on its own simply creates unmanageable hotspots wherever the flame/heat is applied. This is definitely not a set you would backpack with! Much too heavy and bulky for that.
