Rothco G.I. Type Stainless Steel Canteen Cup

This Rothco G.I. Type Stainless Steel Canteen Cup mates perfectly with the (sold separately) Rothco Canteen Cup Lid. In fact, the lid snaps on for a friction fit! Paired with a Nalgene canteen bottle (which I love!), you have a very compact, durable hydration and minimalist cook set, albeit a little on the heavy side compared with some of the ultralight titanium cookset options on the market. If you're looking for the lightest possible option and money is not an issue, go titanium. If you're on a budget and don't mind the extra ounces of stainless steel, grab one of these lids and the matching canteen cup. It makes for a very durable set that won't rust.I noticed that another reviewer claimed this is not made of stainless steel and also mentioned a finish that is toxic when heated. If that person is being honest, he/she must have received a fake/substitute product. Both the Rothco canteen cup and the Rothco lid I received are definitely made from matte-finish stainless steel. There is no coating or other toxic substance, nor was there any of the whitish oxidization that can form on stainless in a high moisture, but oxygen starved environment (stainless steel needs air to maintain its oxidization/corrosion inhibiting properties). I mention the latter because if that reviewer happened to get one of these that had been stored somewhere wet while shrink-wrapped (or in some other way to suffocate the oxygen supply), it might produce a whitish, semi-chalky oxidization that could be mistaken as a toxic coating, I suppose. That seems unlikely, however, since my canteen did not come packaged in shrink-wrap. Anyway, thought I would mention that there seems to be misunderstanding/misperception--or possibly a fake knock-off--floating around.A few more thoughts on the tradeoff of weight vs. space savings. The weight of this canteen cup is 214 grams, with the lid (sold separately) adding an additional 60 grams. That's not bad for such a robust little container, especially if you're fine with minimalist cooking and planning to do most of it over a fire (where the durability will be especially appreciated), but it's certainly not "ultra light". If space is at a premium and you already carry a canteen, then this is the way to go, as it will fit right over the canteen without taking up extra space. However, to put the weight in perspective, the GSI stainless 1L kettle is actually slightly lighter at 245 grams (including its lid and integrated bail-style handle) and with its wider base is a little more convenient to cook from. So if you have space to spare and would like something a little more civilized in feel and elegant in look, then I would pass on this canteen option and consider the GSI kettle (which is even lighter in the "Haluilite" aluminum version, though I prefer the stainless steel version for fire cooking).

I bought this cup to pair it with this canteen  Rothco 422 G.I. Style Aluminum Canteen and Cover, 1 Quart .It matches perfectly the canteen, both can be carried in the same package.This cup is stainless steel and so far I haven't had any problems with it. It has worked well for me. The butterfly handle is really handy for grabbing the cup as you would grab a coffe cup by the handle, though grabbing it as if it didn't have them is not a problem either, but the handles come in handy (pun intended) if you need to boil water or cook something with it, you could burn your hands if you grab the cup.The cup's intake capacity is 500 mililiters give or take, if I fill it using my canteen, I still have some water left in the canteen. Good to ration water supply when you are far from a water source or you need to share water with someone else and you don't want them to drink from your canteen directly.It's resistant, I've packed it for countless trips to the outdoors and it doesn't have any dents despite the fact it has to share space with lenses, cameras and other stuff I sometimes pack.One aspect that wonders me of this cup but I can't explain is the fact that it dries quickly. I don't know if it's the weather here or the material or what, but whenever I drink water in it, it dries fast, sometimes less than five minutes, with no traces that a liquid was ever there.The only gripe you could have with it is the fact that seems that over time, the cup develops a dark color, mine was shiny gray when I got it but now it's dark gray. I don't mind really since it's meant to be used out there, it's not a jewel that needs to be kept clean and shiny always.Some people have mentioned this is a military issue cup, and that would explain just how tough it is.If you need a cup and a canteen to go with it, I suggest you take a look at this one and the canteen I linked to, they seem to be made for each other, since they fit perfectly. One thing though, I have to use the canteen cover in order to be able to pair the cup with the canteen, because if I remove it and just put the canteen inside the cup, the canteen is loose and won't attach to the cup. The cover acts like a kind of gasket.This canteen will certainly be handy if you go frequently to the outdoors. In the field it's where it shines. I recommend it.

This is exactly what it looks like and works perfecr.

I received the cup and lid only 3 days after I ordered it. The lid snaps in place and holds tight enough that I filled the cup with water and held the lid by the top handle and it didn't come off. If I were to hang the cup from this top handle over a fire the pressure of the boiling water may be enough to pop the top and drop boiling water in the fire, so I don't plan on trying that, or maybe I will as a test. The lid is NOT water tight, so it might be able to "cook" from a top hanging cored. The side handle is made from 2 collapsible "wings" that fit together snugly to form a drinking handle, but when they are collapsed against the cup 1 holds snugly and the other flaps around clanging the cup, I tried bending it a little to fix this with no success. Removed the 2 "Made in China" stickers washed it out and then took a drink of water The mouth feel of the edge of the cup is a little sharp but the curve of the rim makes it less noticeable. If the handle didn't clang around it would be a 5 star rating.

Heavy duty built to last

Excelente. Compre 2 para acompletar dos cantimploras US Army que compre aquí mismo en Amazon. Excelente simplemente excelente estoy muy satisfecho y recomiendo ampliamente este producto.

ナルゲン オアシスを、自衛隊仕様のキャンティーン カップと使っていたのですが、そもそも 自衛隊の水筒が小さいようで、違和感しか無いフィット感 それならばと思い、こちらの商品を試して見る事に、一緒に、キャンティーン スタンド ストーブ と キャンティーン カップのフタをロスコ製で同時に購入 オアシス との相性バッチリ👍 カップ と スタンディング ストーブもジャスト フィットで大満足です。米軍製のキャンティーン カップ や ストーブ も持っていますが、年式で、型が違うのか ジャスト フィットで無かったりします。それを思うと、今回は、本当 揃えて買って良かったです。(ちなみに、キャンティーンカップのフタは、やはり形状が違うようで、自衛隊仕様のカップには使えません)

Great canteen. Looks like it is good quality and I like the sturdy handles.YES, the 32 oz Nalgene Canteen water bottle fits into it perfectly. Looking forward to trying it out over a campfire.

Embona a la perfección en mi nalgen oasis 100% recomendable

ブッシュクラフト社の内面フッ素コート仕様のキャンティーンのフッ素コートが剥がれてショックで捨ててしまったのですが、水筒とクッカーを一体化できるメリットは捨て難いので本商品を購入しました。結論から言うと、初めからこちらを買えばよかったです。BC社のキャンティーンを購入するときも、ロスコのキャンティーンを比較しましたが、なんとなく商品画像が薄汚れて（失礼）いてBC社のを選択しました。届いたロスコのキャンティーンはとても綺麗で、IHでも問題なく使えました。ただ、容量が少ないのと水量を計る目盛がないのは不便に感じました。
