Invented over a hundred years ago and still used by the US Army. This is a clever little thing - a metal cup that forms a compact package with the canteen, which is sold separately. An excellent alternative for a full-sized mess tin when space is an issue. We have been selling US surplus cups before but they are becoming quite rare and thus very expensive. These are modern reproductions.

Features

This smart cup was invented over a hundred years ago. The cup is designed to be stored together with the canteen, taking up virtually no extra space at all. The style has remained pretty much the same since WWI, although during material shortages these have been made from aluminum. We also have a suitable lid for the cup.

These cups are made of stainless steel, which means they are durable and can be heated on open fire. As a nice feature, the heat conductivity of stainless steel is far lower compared to aluminum. This fits about 0.6 liters of mac and cheese and weighs about 210 grams (7.4 oz) when empty. On the backside, there are two metal wire thingies that can be folded out to form a handle. Manufacturer A. Blöchl. Made in China.
