I am flying SAN - EWR on the redeye tonight...wow, a packed flight!

I am begining a move to the East Coast and want to check a bag that has cast iron pans and 2 cooking knives. As long as I am under the weight limit and it is checked baggage, do you see any issues with this? I cannot lose these pans as they were given to me by my Grandparents and, while amazing cookware, also have sentimental value.

Thanks for your help.
