For grilling, the one on the left.

For looks, the one on the right.

@GregS 

No grubs just some wild winter grass mixed in the bermuda.  Yeah, both lids are good.  The one on the right does have a square vent tab though....hmmmm

Pretty sure I'm in the vast minority here but I really love the spun flat top lids. My votes for the left.

I always give the nod to the metal handle lids.  Just has such a vintage look.  Can't beat it.  Is that Winz's old Westerner?

Definitely not from mine.  You can see how different the fade is from kettle to kettle.  My old westerner below - see how the fade goes farther past the vent?:





And Harris, for the record - I love both of those lids.  But I have to say that I am partial to any kettle that says "Wood Dale" on the vent...

Both are gorgeous. Trying to decide between one or the other hurts my brain. If I had both on the property and had to get rid of a cooker it would be the gasser.

As much as I love double rivet wooden handles, I am a metal handle man first. The Wood Dale on the right... 8)

I like both. The metal handle would also be my preference.
