Cookware
Our cookware brings the house’s imagination into the kitchen, with EGGSCALIBUR™ as its first creation.
Our story
CookWarriors™ grew out of a passion for cooking and a curiosity about the world around it. The kitchen is somewhere we spend time, try things and share what we enjoy with other people. We wanted to create a house that could give that part of life more room for imagination.
EGGSCALIBUR™ was the idea that got us started. Working to make it real brought us into contact with people who could help develop it, and with a community who wanted to see it exist. That experience became the beginning of CookWarriors™.
Our World
Food is the connection between the different things we want to create. Sometimes that connection is immediate, as it is with a pan. It can also take the form of a book that draws you into a subject, an illustration you recognise yourself in or something you choose to wear outside the kitchen.
Our world has room for cookware, publishing and apparel, while leaving space for ideas that do not fit those categories yet. A future ingredient or marinade would need its own reason to exist, beginning with its composition and taste. We want each project to contribute something of its own to the house. This is a direction for development; the catalogue shows what is available now.
Books
Our publishing work explores food through the subjects we choose and the experience of reading.
Apparel & Lifestyle
Original artwork carries the CookWarriors™ world beyond the kitchen.
Food
Our interest in food follows ingredients, recipes and the people around the table. It also guides the food projects we want to develop.
Food culture
Our interest in cooking includes what happens around the meal. A recipe can carry someone's memory of home. An ingredient can become the reason to try something unfamiliar. Friends can spend an evening arguing about how something should be cooked.
That involvement with food gives us subjects to explore beyond kitchen equipment. It influences the stories we want to publish and the references that find their way into our artwork.
The personality of CookWarriors™
We enjoy ideas with an unexpected point of view. EGGSCALIBUR™ drew on a piece of internet culture and the familiar image of a legendary sword. Other projects can find their character somewhere else, including the everyday humour of people who love cooking.
We want that personality to remain approachable. Someone should be able to enjoy a creation without having to learn the whole history behind its references. Discovering that history can become part of the pleasure of owning it.
What goes into a creation
The way a creation is made affects how someone experiences it. With an object, a surface or a connection between parts can matter every time it is picked up. In a book, editorial decisions influence how a subject unfolds as someone reads.
Our ambition is to give those choices the attention they deserve and make them understandable. Materials should be explained through their actual role. A claim about performance needs evidence appropriate to the product. The experience also includes the packaging and the information someone receives with it.
EGGSCALIBUR™ is where it all started
A frying pan with a sword for a handle was the idea that brought CookWarriors™ into the world. Before anyone could cook with it, there were physical samples to examine and a handle construction to work through with our partners.
From the first sketch to engineering, production, and every rejection in between, we kept moving.

Read the founder’s letterThe development photographs show that work in progress: early handle samples, individual components and a pan beside its protective foam. The finished silhouette emerged through decisions about how those parts would fit together and connect to the pan.
Production brought the project into a different setting. The archives show stacks of pan bases and people working at an assembly and packing station. Boxes prepared for storage belong to that story too. They mark the point when the project became something that had to be made, packed and delivered to real people.
Our early customers helped carry EGGSCALIBUR™ into their own kitchens. They shared photographs, gave it as a gift and sent us feedback about living with it. Their involvement, along with the people who helped develop and manufacture it, is part of how CookWarriors™ began.
How the system can develop
EGGSCALIBUR™ has a handle assembled from a grip, sword guard, pommel and mounting blade. Four screws secure the handle to the pan using the supplied hex tool.
The shared connection gives us a basis for developing other compatible handles and pan configurations. That creates possibilities for an owner to make choices over time. Each new component still needs its own development and compatibility checks, and we need to explain clearly what fits together and what is actually available.
Owning a CookWarriors™ creation
An object can become part of someone's routine or something they enjoy keeping on display. It may also be chosen as a gift, which makes its presentation and the experience of opening it important.
We want the attention given to a creation to continue beyond its appearance. Someone should be able to understand how to use it, look after it and find the relevant information about its parts. As the house develops, those practical details need to remain part of the work.
A letter from our founder
Many failed to make it happen! but …H*** Yeah! we did it.
Eggscalibur™ & Cook Warriors: The Story.
This is the real story of EGGSCALIBUR™ — our sword-handle frying pan that wasn’t supposed to exist, but did. In a market full of abandoned prototypes and ideas that never made it past the sketch, EGGSCALIBUR™ cut through. This wasn’t just another kitchen tool; it was a bet ... backed by me, VORVN Ltd., and every partner and investor who decided to take the risk with us.
From the first sketch to engineering, production, and every rejection in between, we kept moving. We heard the doubts, saw the raised eyebrows, but we refused to stop. What we’ve built here isn’t just a pan; it’s proof of what stubborn belief and the right people around you can create.
The credit doesn’t belong to us alone. Our early supporters, subscribers, and the thousands of emails, comments, and messages from around the world made it clear! EGGSCALIBUR™ is bigger than a product. It’s an icon, a piece of internet culture, and a daily reminder that cooking can be just as epic as the meals we make.
Our first 500 units — Drop 01 — sold out in just a few days, entirely organically. Not a single dollar spent on ads. 5-star feedback across the board. And to those who waited patiently through production, shipping, and all the behind-the-scenes chaos, we owe you more than thanks — you’re the reason this idea became real.
Now, we’re moving into a pure drop model. Every release will be limited, crafted in small batches, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. The next drop is already in motion, and if history repeats itself, it won’t stay in stock for long.
To every investor who believed when it made no financial sense, to every partner who stayed through the grind, and to every customer who turned this into a movement! Thank you. You’ve proven that a crazy idea in the right hands can become a legendary one.
We’re just getting started. The Cook warriors legacy will keep growing! with new drops, new ideas, and the same drive that got us here. Because when the right people come together, no recipe is too complex, no challenge too big.
With EGGSCALIBUR™ in hand, let’s keep making every meal legendary.
