@ BB2 -- here is some info ( SAD iron )

Looks like the handle comes off on this one. That is what makes it smart as you can heat the iron without heating the handle.
@ FORT -- Lol, now that would be Dumb to heat the handle....so they were Smart!! LOL
Very interesting!I've got a collection of cast iron and brass irons.They're of different construction . As with yours some have wooden handles and some metal ones.
Thanks for the ~ LOVES ~
