Always great to see ingenuity at work. Thanks for sharing the canteen tips!

great video ... i have a couple of canteen sets, i know there are better more modern alternatives out there, but i cant bring myself to give up the trusty old canteen cup.

Love that baking tip Blackie! I had no idea butterfly handle cups could lock like that. Good stuff!

Great video, Blackie. Thanks so much for the great tips!

Well done Blackie. It's good to see someone who actually knows what they're doing talking about it. You did it again.

Awesome video appreciate you sharing this knowledge.

Thanks for the video Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Excellent !! Thank You, Sir !! H.

Outstanding info! Thanks.

I had no idea you could bake with this set. 👍👍

here I was, trying to find a mini/micro Dutch oven for biscuits, and you had a solution in the kit. Thanks Blackie

Gréât vidéo Blackie. To the point and very clear. Thanks and take care.

Thank you for posting another fine video.

Excellent tip with the foil !!

Great tips Blackie.

Thanks for the tips on the canteen cup, and stoves. I haven't been able to find a stove yet, but I've seen them in use. I have a World War 2 model cup that I've had for years. Probably my most favorite piece of kit

Blackie, thanks for sharing !

Another great video. Keep up the good work brother.

My first canteen cup was the old style and I have carried that thing many many miles and eaten many good meals from it. I still have it in my collection today and it is definitely a sentimental item at this point from so many good memories in the field. Good information and an awesome idea for baking you showed. I had not seen that method before. Thanks for sharing brother! Take care!

One of the most loved pieces of mil kit (up there with ponchos and woobies) but also one of the worst. Burn your lips on the metal, and takes forever to heat with tablets. Sure, I still have one. lol Would love to see more canteen cup cooking videos.

Outstanding.

Hello Blackie, and thanks for the tips. Just noticed I had not been notified of your video's and several other of my first subs. I see google or you tube as undid the bell . I had never seen the heavy duty canteen cup cover like yours before. We were never issued a cup cover in Nam, back in '67-'68 or the stove bottom. We made them with a church key and the short cheese can. Heat tabs came with c- rations or so they were called .

the cup cover is the old canvas canteen cover from early nam era it was replaced with the nylon late i n the war and thru the 90's till the modern one took over..i like the canvas one for the liner that holds heat and also can be wet in hot weather to help cool the water by evaperation

Really like the way you showed the features and differences in these cups. I agree with your selection for canteen cup stove also. I was distracted at the beginning of the video... did you mention the horizontal slot on the handle that is made for inserting your bayonet blade so as to extend the reach on the cup? That is, it worked that way back when we had skinny bayonets. 😉

Hello Blackie do you have any videos using the German or Russian Romanian kidney shaped typ mess kits for all the uses you do cooking baking or other hacks I'd love to see that. I like the heavy cover you have but forget trying to find one.they don't make them any more. By the way that was a nice baking trick. Great video man.

Good tips for sure. I have a problem finding the lid that fits the GI cup. I do have a Rothco butterfly with lid but alas the lid is too small for the GI cups.

More of these. Anything you can share

Excellent information Blackie! Thanks much!

No mention of the tension bubble the folding handle uses to keep tab pressure against the cup "hooks". It's between the rivets. 2:11 shows it. If handle is bent and doesn't keep pressing against the bubble, tabs can unhook. When you fold foil around canteen, press cup onto canteen, it will mold the foil tighter.

Find I go back to the old style stove stands no matter how many newer gizmos I buy, they're light, totally unobtrusive in your kit, highly useful and inexpensive. If for some weird reason I had to pick one canteen stove stand to use exclusively, including all the Crusader ones and the like, it would be this one.

I need that lid for my cups. I have both cups too.

Will my Pathfinder lid work as well?

How about demonstrating the baking in that setup? I'd like to see it so I can try it.

I have a question, is it safe to cook or boil water in an old canteen cup? I recently purchased an old ww2 canteen cup km co 1945, wash it many times with soap then i had coffee from it but i got a funny taste so this worried me so i stopped to use it, anyone can give me any advice thanks

try this go get barkeepers friend at the store with the other cleaning products and scrub the canteen cup..really well then rinse out and add water and put on stove and boil..see if that fixes the problem..if not in the long life of a canteen cup who knows what it was used for..my uncle used one to measure fuel for use in farm equipment

I noticed you had a nalgene canteen instead of a GI canteen, just curious, why ? Where did you get the heavy duty lid, never saw that before, only the thin ones.

@blackoracle69

i got both canteen and cup lid from canteen shop .com..the nalgene canteen is dishwasher safe..so in the field that means i am safe to pour boiling wanterinto it..this will make the bottle into a hot water bottle for cold winter nights..and allows me to clean and steralize the canteen in the field..the g.i. cant take that hot of water it will melt..and if i am boiling my water as i often to to make it safe i can pour it in to canteen and not have to wait for it to cool

HI I WONDER, IF A PERSON COULD CARFULY CUT THE BOTTOM OF THE NEWER STILE STOVE TO MAKE IT FIT THE CUP LIKE YOUR OLD STILE DID. LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN. YOUR OLD STILE ONE LOOKS LIKE IT CAN BE USED MORE WAYS THAN THE NEW ONE. IF YOU REALY NEED TEMPERAY BOTTOM, USE THE FOIL AND SHORT GREEN TWIGS.
