Usually welded, but rivet simpler to repair (repair ish very rare case though).

kinda feel safe w/ a screwed one [literally :s22:]
much easier to tighten it back, if it starts to come loose

riveted/welded not too confident :o

IMHO.
Got 1 wok with side loop handle that is welded - eventually gave way.
Got 1 wok with 3-screw long handle - can find replacement screw and nut.

rarely get the one welded
kinda felt unsafe or having these imaginary wild thots, that it might gave way someday, unexpectedly :s22:

worst if while carrying it w/ a load of hot food inside & it happens :/

Welding I think need skill.
I go see car related jack stands on the internet - some comments say something like beware, the welding no good. Wild thots ???
