Since 6 1/2" is the top measurement, what is the inside (cooking surface) measurement?

From spout to spout is 6 1/2” and the bottom is 4 1/2”, perfect for one person (me) cooking 2 eggs, a frittata, 2 Italian sausages fit curved around the edges, hash browns, grilled sandwich etc, but it Will be too small for more people.

Is the skillet 10.25 inches inside at the bottom? If not, what is the diameter of the bottom?

10.25 is at the top. It measures 8.0 inche's at the bottom.

How do you season a cast iron pan? And how often? Thanks

I too have owned and used cast iron skillets since I was a teen, 50 years ago. My mother always used them and her mother before her so that is what I had. I have always used organic beef tallow to season mine probably once or twice a month, depending on use. Oil, especially canola oil (bad, unhealthy oil), should not be used. If a quick oiling (not seasoning) in between is desired, it's best to use a high temperature oil like avocado. A quick rub can do the trick, if your pan looks a bit dry. I have one pan that is about 100 years old! These babies live forever, if well cared for.

These are very true to size...across the top 15" but at the bottom, 13". My 12" pan is exactly 12" diameter across the top but the base interior dimension is 10". Pan has pour spouts on either side and the additional grip handle is very, handy...no pun intended, for countering the weight of these workhorses. Excellent value and an even better pan, should last a lifetime if cared for properly.
