Helikon-Tex®
3-piece stainless steel mess kit
Ships within 5 to 8 business days.
A stainless steel military mess kit differs from an aluminum camping mess kit in one respect: the thickness of the metal allows you to cook directly over a fire without burning the bottom. It consists of three nesting pieces: a one-liter container measuring 15 cm in diameter, a second measuring 0.7 liters and 13 cm, and a 15.5 cm lid that doubles as a frying pan. The stainless steel is electropolished, a smooth finish that makes it harder for residue to stick. The set weighs 685 grams, making it more suitable for vehicle-based camping or at a fixed campsite than for self-sufficient trekking. In return, it does not warp or wear out.
