ハンドルに火が当たりづらく、素手でもハンドル握れます。ステンレスは熱伝導が良くない素材ですが、薄いので割と早くお湯が沸きます。アルミの方が熱伝導率は良いけど肉厚に作ってあるせいもあり、さほど早くお湯が沸くということもありませんでした。ステンレスは薄くても強度が得られるので使いやすいと思います。

June 2021 bought a Rothco Made in China, good enfu. Stainless and fit under the canteen good.Going back in timeMarch 2021Purchased another from a later date" Nice price, $11 for that one, fast fast shipping from AmmoCanMan. Many choices avail on the internet.........Also, earlier,March 2021 got one from different seller, not so good this time.I would shop carefully for the most authentic GI Mil Spec cup in the future, there are even some that don't fit the standard GI one qt canteen, but look correct.....I think some of the EU cups fit correctly......easy to go wrong and be disappointed trying to save money. Get the stainless steel.There are also GI Aluminum Cups.

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.

Great cup. I have both the USGI and this one and they are almost indistinguishable from each other except for the US stamp. Bought the lid which fits this cup great but is off shaped for the US one. No worries, it fits the cup it was made for.

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).

The USAF issued one of these cups to me for SERE training, and we used them for lots of things. I had to turn mine in when I left AD, so I bought this one hoping it was the same one as I had been issued, and it is! This cup fits my military issued canteen and carry pouch perfectly! This is made of genuine stainless steel and seems to be the same thickness/gauge construction as well, so I have no doubt it will perform as well as the one I used throughout SERE school. The handles fold out and lock together for easy carry/drinking, and they also aid in camp stove cooking as they stay pretty cool. However if you're a camp fire cooker you'll need something to protect your hands from getting burned, like gloves, as the handles are not long enough to protect your hands from the heat of open coals and if your coals are hot and fresh they can heat the handles up as well. If you're looking for one these for your Mil. Spec. canteen and carry pouch this is the one for you!

I bought this cup to pair it with this canteen .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.
