ICON® is built for high-temperature searing, frying, sautéing and baking. Its thick iron core cooks evenly and produces unequaled fond and caramelization.
But, compared to cast iron, ICON® is 30% lighter and has a stay-cool handle. ICON® won’t rust. It won’t crack. And it won’t scratch your glass cooktop or countertop. ICON® is easier to season than cast iron and it is much easier to maintain and keep clean.
ICON® has an inert surface created by a new, patented technology. The surface is a compound of Iron, Carbon, Oxygen and Nitrogen, and is 9 times harder than steel so it won’t peel or scrape off. And it won’t allow iron or harmful chemicals to leach into your food and affect its taste, color or healthfulness.
ICON® is Made in the U.S.A. and carries a 25-year consumer or 5-year commercial limited warranty.

div.slide'>'We put the ICON® pan through 3 weeks of restaurant service, from soup to nuts. ICON® still looks great, has seasoned up and is now my favorite pan to use. We cooked fish, beef, French toast, crab cakes - anything that we normally would serve. It became part of our rotation. We seared as well as placed it in a 500 degree oven. I love the pan and would like more of them!'
'ICON® is heavy duty and really nonstick when properly seasoned. It will take a beating. I browned potatoes, seared fish and seared octopus. It's a super heavy pan.'
'Wow! The surface is pretty amazing. The biggest turnoff to non-stick cookware is the risk of getting treatment chemicals into the food which could be toxic. Obviously that is not the case here. Bravo! I love the weight and feel of the handle. I also love the fact that you can throw it in the oven and it's induction ready.'
'We've been cooking Asian stir fry, tortillas, eggs, bacon, risotto, polenta and everything else and so far the pan is really good. It's a bit heavy, but it cleans up really well.'
'The pan performs really well. Great heat distribution and really durable. I use it mostly for searing steaks, scallops and firm fleshed fish.'
'I did some seafood, salmon, scallops and garlic prawns. Got beautiful color. Seared a couple NY steaks and made a pan sauce. We made some vegetables and even some scrambled eggs. This pan is solid and performs really well.'

Icon (or Frederick Forsyth's Icon) is a 2005 made-for-televisionthriller film directed by Charles Martin Smith and very loosely based on the 1997 novel by Frederick Forsyth. The film premiered on Hallmark Channel May 30, 2005. It is set in the period 1985 to 1999.
Plot[edit]
During the 1999 Russian Presidential elections, the two leading candidates are Igor Komarov (Patrick Bergin), a former Colonel of the KGB, and Nikolai Nikolayev (Joss Ackland), a retired General of the Russian Army. When a car bomb explodes outside one of Komarov's pharmaceutical companies, and a virus is stolen from inside, an investigation by the FSB ensues headed by FSB agents Sonia Astrova (Annika Peterson) and Andrei Kasanov (Niko Nicotera). Their investigation is obstructed by the Director of the FSB, Anatoly Grishin (Ben Cross).
A British Embassy worker from Moscow, Sir Nigel Irvine (Michael York), tracks down Jason Monk (Patrick Swayze), a former CIA operative, who ran double agents in the Soviet Union and convinces him to investigate the incident. Once in Moscow, Jason finds an old friend, Viktor Akopov (Steve Speirs), who agrees to hide Jason from Komarov's men. Viktor steals a residue sample of the bomb used and his scientist friend Tonkin (Valentin Ganev) tells him that the explosive used, Semtex H, has a direct traceable link to the FSB. Tonkin is soon killed by Vladimir Dorganosov (Tom Wlaschiha), the man who attacked Komarov industries and stole the bioweapon.
Sonia and Andrei locate Leonid Zaitzev (Theodor Danetti), a cleaner who worked at the Komarov Industries plant and saw Dorganosov steal the virus. As they question him, Grishin appears, arrests Zaitzev and fires Sonia and Andrei. Zaitzev is later killed by Dorganosov while in custody. Sonia goes home to find Jason waiting for her, and agrees to help him access the FSB network. However, they are shot at by Dorganosov, and a car chase ensues. They go to Andrei's house where they find him already dead.
After the chase, Dorganosov demands the rest of his payment from his contractor, who is revealed to be Anatoly Grishin. While they are arguing, Komarov himself arrives and orders Grishin to kill Dorganosov.
Jason and Sonia come to realise that Grishin knew about the bombing in advance, and they raid his house for information. Jason is injured and, while he is unconscious, Sonia locates his daughter Elena (Marta Kondova) and brings her to him. While trawling through the information from Grishin's computer, they find a secret manifesto written by Komarov, which tells of his plans to unleash genocide on any 'undesirables' in Russia. Jason realises that the bombing and the theft of the bioweapon were planned by Komarov, and mark the beginning of the genocide.
Jason and Sonia go to Komarov's Presidential opponent, General Nikolayev, and try to expose Komarov but he announces having vaccinations for all viruses. This boosts his popularity, and leads to his election.

Jason and Sonia find Komarov's facility outside Moscow and raid it. Sonia kills Grishin and takes his phone, which allows them to locate the FSB agents spreading the viruses. After Jason secretly hands Grishin's phone to Sir Nigel, he orders the arrest of the rogue FSB agents. Komarov's plan is revealed publicly, and riots ensue in the streets, calling for his resignation. Komarov attempts to mobilize the army against the rioting crowds, but Nikolayev, at Jason and Sonia's urging, convinces the troops to stand down. Komarov tries to escape but is cornered and shot by Jason and subsequently killed by the crowds.
Nikolayev becomes the acting President, and Sonia is appointed head of the FSB. Jason moves back to Spain with Elena, and resumes his job hiring out a fishing boat.
