Cooktop compatibility: The flat bottom is designed to sit securely on many gas, electric, and glass cooktops. Always confirm cookware requirements with your cooktop manufacturer and make sure the base has stable contact with the cooking surface.
Fast, high-heat cooking at home
The Yosukata 13.5-inch black carbon steel wok combines a flat base with the sloped sides needed for stir-frying. Its family-size capacity works well for fried rice, noodles, vegetables, braised dishes, pan-frying, and deep-frying.
- Pre-seasoned: Factory pre-seasoning gives the cooking surface a head start.
- Black carbon steel: Heats quickly and supports the high temperatures used for searing and stir-frying.
- Flat bottom: Provides more stable contact with common home cooktops than a traditional round-bottom wok.
- Wooden handle: Offers a comfortable grip while moving and tossing ingredients.
- 13.5-inch size: Suitable for family meals and larger portions.
What pre-seasoned means
Factory pre-seasoning is the beginning of the wok's natural patina, not a synthetic non-stick coating. The surface will continue developing and generally improve with regular cooking and proper care. Color changes and an uneven dark patina are normal.
Before first use
Wash the wok by hand, dry it completely, and apply a very thin layer of cooking oil. Heat and cool it gradually during the first uses while the patina continues to develop.
Care instructions
- Hand wash after the wok has cooled; do not soak it or place it in the dishwasher.
- Use hot water and a soft sponge. A small amount of mild dish soap can be used when needed.
- Dry immediately with a towel or over low heat.
- Apply a very thin layer of cooking oil before storage.
- Store in a dry place.
Good to know
Carbon steel requires maintenance. Moisture can cause rust, but the surface can usually be cleaned and re-seasoned. Proper drying and a thin protective layer of oil help keep the wok ready for regular use.

Hi Susie, we're thrilled to hear you're happy with your wok! Thanks for sharing your experience and for choosing Yosukata Store US.
Love the quality feel this wok has, you can tell it's a quality product. The only slight suggestion I could give is that I needed to lightly sand the edges. They were a bit sharp to leave alone. But this required minimal effort on my part with just a little sandpaper. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase and I'm very excited to start cooking with it!
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the quality of the wok. We also appreciate your note about the edges and will share it with our quality control team. Enjoy cooking!
Excellent walk. Using it routinely.

Got it for my mom for her birthday. She loves it!
Hi Jesse! I'm so glad to hear your mom loves the wok. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Like the size compared to my 16.5 carbon steel round, good weight. Seasoned well with my jet burner unit. Have not yet cooked with it.
My only knock thus far is the rough edge on both wok and purchased spatula. Could cut self with wok if not careful and spatula could compromise seasoning. Had to use aluminum oxide sandpaper to remedy this issue.
Looking forward to using it and I expect only good things.
Hi Roy, thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad you're satisfied with the size and seasoning. We appreciate your note about the rough edges and will pass this to our team for quality improvement. Enjoy cooking with your wok!
