It arrived but is unfortunately a little small for what I'm after, despite feeling very high quality... I'm gonna return it and get a De Buyer mineral B... Cheaper and can probably take a bit more mis-use.
Unless cooking acidic sauces in carbon steel is a bad idea?

Hmmm not sure, I can't think of a time I've really used tomatos in something cast, would the acid strip the seasoning, possibly. If you're still not adverse to engineered non-stick the Le Creuset Toughened range is nothing short of amazing, I've got a couple of frying pans and a large sauté pan and they're in perfect condition a good few years down the line. Nice but pricey, most used pan in our kitchen.

Don't cook acids in cast iron skillet!

Ah that's a shame. Those De Buyer's get great reviews.

The bits of copper/stainless Mauviel I have (I think it's also 1830) are very heavy, 2.5mm copper.
Edit: just checked and the rivet pattern and handle are different on mine so maybe not the same. Top brand though.
