Been looking for a good quality, flat bottom, coating-free, thick carbon steel wok (as recommended on many review sites for home woking). Every wok matching these features was either sold by third-party sellers or required expensive shipping. Finally came across this item on sale today with free shipping and it appears to be exactly what I wanted: reviewers in the comments report it is constructed out of 14 gauge carbon steel and the wood handle can be removed when oven seasoning.
