I agree you don't need a "set". We carry two of our antique cast iron pans--a griddle and a fry pan. Both have been with us for years and handed down one way or another. We have used them on a wood cook stove and on a restaurant gas stove and on a modern day smooth top electric range besides the RV. Where ever and forever they are wonderful. But there is a knack to them. My sister is a great cook but her scrambled eggs stuck in the pan while they never do for me. She stirred them too much--even well-seasoned cast iron is not the same as non-stick.
We only have one griddle so that will go back and forth to the RV but we have more than one fry pan. We typically would not use a whole "set" because we don't have a large variety of meal types. The pans are in the RV cupboard over the sink--no special storage area.
BTW, one of our most prized possessions is a cast iron waffle iron. It is beautiful as well as useful. It was handed down to my father from my great grandfather. We don't take that camping though. They are still available in the style that we have too. Although our handles are cast iron, not wood.
