Griswold No. 9 Handle Griddle (609)
Used price$110–$190live on eBay
The Griswold No. 9 handle griddle is a round, nearly flat griddle about 11 inches across, with a low rim and a skillet-style handle, weighing a little over 4 pounds. It carries pattern number 609 and turns up in both large block logo (about 1920–1940) and small block logo (about 1939–1957) versions; the large-logo bottoms are fully lettered and usually ask a little more. With almost no sidewall, a griddle shows warp more readily than a skillet, so the flatness check is the main one: ask for a photo of it lying on a flat counter, and look for any gap under the edge or a centre that spins. Then check the low rim for chips — a missing chunk can't be restored — look for hairline cracks running in from the edge, and inspect the bottom for pitting around the logo. Don't confuse it with the No. 8 griddle (608) or Griswold's long two-burner griddles that appear in the same searches.

How to identify a real Griswold
Erie-era pieces carry the Griswold cross-in-double-circle with ERIE, PA (U.S.A.) — large block logo pans fill much of the bottom, small block logo pans have a small stamp near the centre — or, before about 1907, just ERIE and a size number. A pattern number (for example 704 on a No. 8 skillet) usually sits near the handle, often with a mold letter. Griswold-branded pieces without ERIE in the mark were generally made in Sidney, Ohio, after 1957. Reproductions tend to show rough, unmilled surfaces and blurred lettering.
Buying guide
Which one to buy
From Oct 1, 2026 listings
17 Griswold No. 9 handle griddles (pattern 609) were listed at the late-September check, most at about $110–190 delivered; a large-block 609B near $110 has since sold. Large-block-logo griddles usually ask more than small-logo ones. Warp matters most on a griddle: ask for a photo of it lying on a flat counter, and check the low rim for chips. Restored small-logo ones run about $145–158; an as-is 609 is $60 with free shipping, and one listing has a chunk missing, which no restoration fixes. An unmarked No. 9 griddle the seller only guesses is Griswold was left out. Cooks should take a restored one; collectors, a large-block griddle.

Tools and consumables for restoring and maintaining a piece in this category. Links go to a plain Amazon search; we earn nothing from them.
Chain mail scrubber
The canonical hot-water rinse tool — removes stuck-on food without stripping seasoning. Lasts a decade. The single best $15 accessory for any vintage cast iron user.
Search on AmazonPan scraper set
Plastic scrapers shaped to corners + curved edges. Safer than metal spatulas on the machined cooking surface — they remove stuck-on food without scoring the seasoning.
Search on AmazonCast iron bacon press
Keeps bacon flat on the griddle for even cooking. Doubles as a sandwich press for paninis. The flat-bottom design also helps verify a griddle's flatness — if the press doesn't sit flush, the griddle has warped.
Search on AmazonFlaxseed oil (food-grade)
Most-recommended re-seasoning oil — polymerizes into a hard, durable surface unlike the gummy buildup vegetable oils can leave. 6-coat re-season takes a Saturday but lasts years.
