Valtcan Titanium Miltary Canteen with Mess kit Set 1.1L, 750ml, 400ml Lunchbox cup with lid and Carrying Case

Well built and compact design

I had purchased one from this site page, and 2 from Amazon. I absolutely love them. Super lite, big capacity, and they dont leak. Now; to be fair ; I haven't used any of the set over an open fire yet. But I do not think there will be an issue as this is a well made canteen set. Fast shipping. Responds to emails if you have a question. And good product. Can't ask for more. Review coming from DFW Texas

I bought one direct from the distributor, then bought 2 more from Amazon. I wanted to see if the items were different, as one being defective vs buying from the source. All 3 canteens were the exact same, with no issues. This is only a partial review , as I have not cooked with any of the set yet. All 3 parts are made well for their intended use. Meaning , everything is super lite. Nothing leaks and nothing is broken . The canteen pouch, isn't bad if your going on a hike, going for walks, and lite camping. Although, I haven't tested the pouch yet in a hard environment..... but even with that said; I dont feel that it would hold up to really hard use. If your looking for a canteen set that doesn't leak, is super lite, and pretty well made. Then you can't go wrong with this set. But if your a survivalist or heavy use bushcrafter.... you may want to replace the pouch. To me , the pouch isn't a deal breaker.

Great quality product. Nests together nicely. Only dissatisfaction is the jacket does not have the pocket on the outside like pictured.

It is light and sturdy. I'm happy with it.

Great product. Good size for solo camping or a small bug out kit. Threads on cap could be better but holds water tight. Camo pouch colors differ from website pics but still decent quality. Over all a great little package for the price.

The canteen and mess kit are great, super light and tough. Love the way it feels in the hand and how light it is to carry, excellent metal work. However the carrying case is just not a practical design and a pain to use. The buckle strap closure is cumbersome to use and there is no way to conveniently attach this to a belt or back and still be able to remove the canteen. The drawstring to tighten it is just a nuisance. I want to love it but I can't until a better belt carry is available. Again I went with the product for the construction of the canteen, but I hope an improved case will be available soon because it greatly hinders the practicality of the product.

I have tested canteen itself. No water leaking. All handles feels good in my hand. But I didn't tested it in the field yet. One more thing that usually others forget to mention - there is plastic ring on the cap to stop water from leaking. So it's not like full only metal canteen.

Using those two words in a sentence feels like an oxymoron; but it holds water (literally). Lightweight, high capacity, if this IS actually titanium... then it's an impressive material. I have loved camo stuff since I was a kid so the case makes this 100x cooler to me and I use it always. My only gripe would be the supposed residue left over inside the canteen from manufacturing. It seems silly to me that Valtcan, ostensibly selling high-quality products, would not hasten to clean this residue out. The peace of mind that would bring would be worth the premium.. Knowing that you are storing your water supply in this titanium shell, the possibility of there being even vague traces of industrial solvents left over makes me disconcerted. ya, ya, "just wash it", well honestly i think THEY should wash it. we are certainly paying for it.

Works great. Made a stew out of a fish I caught in it over a fire.

serviceable...

Very light weight and you tell right away you got a good product.

Top quality!

Nice set up.

Haven't use it yet. But it's really expensive for a 3 piece utensils for outdoor

Dislikes.....I hate the bag. It's not cheap or poorly designed I'm just not a fan of camo. Likes....it's everything I wanted (except bag) lightweight, durability, design. I'd buy it again. As for the squeaks...paraffin or beeswax problem solved.

Carrier does not completely cover canteen.

Great for back packing!

I bought this mainly for the canteen, because it's hard to find a large titanium canteen. But I figured the two cook pans would maybe come in handy if I could find a use, even if just to hold items in my pack that might get crushed without a hard container. The result exceeded my expectations, and they ended up replacing my entire cook kit (2 pots and a small tea kettle). The canteen is as good as I hoped it would be, very light but large capacity. The lid seals well with no leakage, and it looks cool. The pans are a great size, super light, and the shape allows for very precise pouring of heated water. Since I generally take Mountain House dehydrated food with me, and make coffee in the morning with a pour-over filter, this does that job well with less weight than my previous kit. The included lid also means I can use it to store crushable items in my pack safely. I will say the carry bag thing it came with is pretty ridiculous. I cant imagine using it ever, so I can't really comment on its quality. It is fairly heavy. I don't know why I'd get titanium gear and then store it in a heavy canvas pouch. But I guess if that was all I was carrying, maybe? Either way, it doesn't detract from my enjoyment of this set.

This is a rock solid product. Physically, it takes the banging of the normal usage. No question on the durability of each segment. The pieces fit in nicely altogether into the carrying case and enables flexibility and versatility in the wild outdoors. After speaking with the designer, I understand the scruff marks to be normal and expected because there is no exterior paint and it is the nature of the titanium. Pleased with my purchase and intend to keep and recommend.

I've been looking for something like this for a long time it's outstanding quality can't wait to put it to good Use

Growing up, my go-to backpacking cook kit was a simple GI plastic canteen with the aluminum cup. That's all I used for years and it worked great! Through several cross-country moves, I managed to lose that setup and never replaced it. I moved on to more complicated systems involving handles that folded down over locking lids. Heavy stainless steel pots and pans that were bomb-proof, but nowhere near as simple. This set is like the 21st century, new improved, high speed, low drag version of that beloved GI kit. I love it! Titanium is pretty awesome stuff! Super strong, super-duper lightweight. This kit boasts an 1100ml titanium canteen, a 750ml pot and a 400ml cup. There is a lid that fits both the pot and the cup, (a feature my old kit didn't have). And it all nests together in a high quality nylon carry bag. Further, the is an included cable system so you can hang the pot over a fire pit, (another improvement over the classic kit), via a tripod or a stick. The canteen lid is also titanium but has a silicone gasket to keep it sealed tight. Given that we now have uber lightweight titanium backpacking cooksets, (my current cooking setup weighs 7oz, stove and all!), I don't see this coming with me on any long distance hikes, but for bushcrafting adventures and canoe trips, it's perfect! Yes, it's a bit pricey, but the quality is top notch! "Buy once, cry once." My granddad used to say, (not really, he was a cheapskate...frugal, he called it). This is a kit that MY grandkids will be using long after I am gone. Very highly recommended.

Great quality product would recommend

Haven't used it in the field yet but I know it will withstand heat and cold

I’m a landscaper and plan to use every day. I can make a hot breakfast at home and bring with me using the mess kit. The canteen keeps water cool and it tastes great. However both main snaps broke already, rendering the pouch useless. Wish that hadn’t happened Tried to rig back up using parachord and that did not work. I would probably oil the snaps if I had it to do over again. If I could get a replacement pouch that would be pretty cool, but I plan to make a carrying strap out of parachord nevertheless. Thank you.

Purchased to use on upcoming backpacking trip. The mess kit itself is light and functional - exactly what I was looking for to save space. The case, however, is poorly made. Upon initial inspection of the product, one of the snap fasteners pulled out of the case material, rendering the case worthless.

A lot of money for a canteen but it's probably the best .

I've been using the canteen mess kit by Kieth Titanium, and it's been great to me. I saw this mess kit by Valtcan, and wondered how it fares when compared to the existing champ. I am pleasantly surprised with what they have created. First off, in terms of capacity, the canteen is identical to Kieth's offering at 1100ml. Valtcan's larger cup is 50ml larger than Kieth's, at 750ml vs 700ml. However, Valtcan's design incorporates an additional 400ml cup - nice! The cup and the lid of the canteen both have rings on the lid for hanging above heat, but just be mindful of the silicone seal on the canteen. You don't want to melt that. The handles on both of them are strong and well designed. In terms of finish, the mess kit from Kieth Titanium takes the edge. It looks and feels smoother and more refined. The carrying case that Valtcan includes, in my opinion is better designed when compared to Kieth's offering, though. While Kieth's is simple and light, Valtcan's is tougher made with thicker material and more robust stitching. It is roomier to fit the extra cup. Both fit snug and secure, but the Altcan is easier to get the contents in and out of. I prefer Altcan's design on this one. Neither have any problems with leaking, and that's a huge plus. You don't want to be leaking precious water when out in the field. But like I mentioned above, just keep the silicone/rubber seal in mind when heating up your canteen. In conclusion, I feel this comparison is a stalemate. They both offer great mess kits that are quality made. In terms of value, however, I think Valtcan walks away as the clear victor. With all that said, in the end it all depends on what your preferences are, and what the application is. For me? I can't say which one I like more yet. I love them both for what they are! I would take the Kieth when I'm going alone, or if I'm away for shorter periods. I would take the Valtcan when others are with me, or if I plan on staying out longer. If I want to travel lighter, definitely the Kieth. You see, they are both fantastic, and you can't go wrong with either. Highly recommended kit! 5/5!

Honestly I thought it was expensive… until I received it. It’s a Great traditional design put together with great quality. I’m very pleased with my canteen mess kit.

Love my titanium canteen. I bring it with me on very hiking trip now.

I just needed to get this canteen set, it's my first having to own one of these and I am pleased with it, I think it's definitely worth it's price I enjoye it.

The best military canteen on the market. This thing doesn’t flex at all and everything fits together. All titanium construction means this will last forever. A++

This is an excellent canteen and mess kit. A good metal one like this makes for a great addition to your go-bag since it serves multiple functions. Water carrier, mess kit, cooking platform, it does it all. However, this one is made from titanium and lordy, it's light. So much lighter than any of the other similar kits we have in the house. I'm gleefully replacing my standard mess kit with this one. Ounces make pounds, so getting stuff lighter is great. The construction is excellent. The material is tough and strong. Handles are well mounted. Threads are good and the cap seals up nicely to keep the water in. This is an excellent quality product and nice and light.

This stuff really walks the walk. I have been looking to replace some old beat-up military-grade pieces we had in our camping kit with lighter things I actually wouldn't mind eating/drinking out of that wouldn't load down our bags. In this kit you get a carrying case (and a GOOD one not some janky afterthought), 2 cups (one fits on the outside of the canteen), and the canteen itself. This stuff is amazing, no nasty lining, no weird smells/odors, just an awesome, USEFUL set. I just need a good spork and am good to go here. Worth every penny. I am seriously chucking the rest of my mess kit gear, especially when I saw new products they have in development shown on their social media.

You never know what you're going to get with stuff like this. Yeah, it says "titanium", woo hoo, but that doesn't mean it's MADE well. But this IS. Like, it's made REALLY well. None of the pieces are misshapen or made "off". Everything fits together the way it's supposed to. It's super light, as in you get an entire mess kit with the weight approximation of a traditional canteen. You can wear the holder on your belt or on the MOLLE straps on your pack. And what's the deal with titanium, anyway? A lot of people see "titanium" but they don't really understand why it's good to use for stuff like this. The reason is, first, titanium is VERY resistant to corrosion, and is about as strong as steel while being about as heavy as aluminum. Aluminum can be as strong as steel but you have to add significant bulk. Thin titanium is as strong as thin steel. It's also more resistant to fatigue (not much of an issue here). But most importantly? Titanium is non-biologically reactive. That means there's nothing in it that can hurt you. No aluminum (aluminum = bad), no Teflon, no plastic coatings containing who knows what, just sweet, biologically safe titanium. That's why titanium is good to use for stuff like...canteens. You get the durability AND weight savings with 0 health risk. Win/win/win. Every piece of this is quality. Even the lid has vent holes. Thoughtful touches make good products great. This one's great. If you want a canteen / mess kit that's light, strong, well made, and safe, call BINGO cause you found it. One of the best I've seen. Dare I say perfect? Dare I? I dare! I dare! Going on my bag. Not coming off except to drink from. 100% recommended.

I am so impressed with this canteen and I can't wait to take it on my next hiking/camping trip. I've been using my old boy scout style canteen for decades, and even with all the dents, it still works fairly well...as long as I keep it upright. It's nice now having a canteen that doesn't leak when I lay it down. This canteen is large, strong and lightweight and that's important when camping in the remote places that I hike in to. I wasn't sure if I would use the mess kit or not. After looking at it though, I decided as long as I put things into it that I would normally take with me anyway, it will be taking up almost no extra space in my backpack. It should be a safe place to carry matches and fire starter materials. Lightweight, high capacity, if this IS actually titanium... then it's an impressive material. I have loved camo stuff since I was a kid so the case makes this 100x cooler to me and I use it always. My only gripe would be the supposed residue left over inside the canteen from manufacturing. It seems silly to me that Valtcan, ostensibly selling high-quality products, would not hasten to clean this residue out. The peace of mind that would bring would be worth the premium.. Knowing that you are storing your water supply in this titanium shell, the possibility of there being even vague traces of industrial solvents left over makes me disconcerted. ya, ya, "just wash it", well honestly i think THEY should wash it. we are certainly paying for it.

I got this for my Bug-Out Bag. Pros: Titanium Stackable No Metallic Taste Lightweight Durable Cons: None What I received in the package: 1 x VALTCAN Titanium Canteen Mess Kit Which Includes: 1 x Canteen 2 x Cups 1 x Vented Lid 2 x Hanging Hooks & Cable 1 x Carrying Case This VALTCAN Titanium Canteen Mess Kit product is made entirely of Titanium with the exception of the carrying case. The canteen is roughly 7 1/2” x 5” x 3 and weighs approximately 5.6oz. The 750ml cup is about 3 3/4” x 5 1/4” x 3” and weighs 3.7oz. The 400ml cup is 2” x 5 1/4” x 3” and weighs about 2.7oz. The lid is 1/4” x 5 1 /2” x 3 1/2” and weighs 1.3oz. The carrying case is roughly 7” x 7” x 3” and weighs 4.8oz. What I like about this mess kit mainly is that it is Titanium. Titanium used to be quite expensive when this type of gear was introduced some years ago. But it has come down quite a bit and is relatively reasonable to purchase now. Titanium is ultra light, but very strong. So it is perfect for backpacking. One feature I love about this product is the military style setup. If this is your first time considering Titanium or you are new to hiking. Here are a couple things on Titanium. It is definitely NOT non-stick. It is durable and light. That is its main purpose .. not to be easy to clean. So a helpful tip … - Don't burn or overcook food in it. I know it sounds like a no brainer. But you don't know how many times I hear this for any kind of outdoor cookware. Titanium will also heat in about 60% of the time than stainless steel. So it cooks food faster and/or heats water more quickly in my experience. The only thing this ‘mess’ kit is that your typical mess kit would also contain utensils/ cutlery. Would have been a nice addition to have a knife, fork and spoon or variant of that. I was unable to locate any warranty either in the product information or item description. I appreciate you taking the time to read this. I received this product in exchange for an honest review. All in all, this is one of the better titanium mess kits I have run across. It is well made, light weight and extremely functional. There are little details that show the manufacturer put thought into how this was made. From the stiffer handle retainers to the internal scale. The price point when compared to the competition is right inline with the average price. Absolutely love this gear ... Hope this information was helpful. [5 Stars] This product is made in China.

This is fantastic. Excellent quality, tough, durable and looks great. It does everything the description claims. No problems or concerns, just a high quality set. Love it. 6 stars. Lightweight, despite how tough it is. The only problem is that now, after using it, I want to get rid of all my other canteens and also mess kits, in all our packs and gear, and replace everyting with more of these. Great set.

Perfect for camping trips or road trips. Cups double as small bowls and are easy to wash out. Eat your entire meals on the road. Durable and the canteen holds a lot of liquid. Also great for horseback riding trips. Light weight and the strap on the canteen is comfortable. No tinny taste etc. Canteen seals well and no problems with leaking, even if it is accidentally turned upside down. Great gift idea for the fisherman, camper in the family. Light enough to be ideal for short weekend hikes. Can keep warm soups hot for a while.
