WinterBear Report post Posted March 23, 2012 They don´t have the style I am looking for. / Knut Knut, which type of Scout canteen are you looking for? Is it the round plastic one with the spout on the front side rather than the top? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WinterBear Report post Posted March 23, 2012 Knut, as far as I know currently, the injection molded variety are made by Oasis Canteens here is the US, and I don't know of any other suppliers outside of a Chinese supplier that requires a cargo container's worth. Oasis Canteen's US website is (http://oasiscanteens.com/products.html). They are slightly less at Cal Camp (http://www.calcamp.com/product_reviews.php?cPath=21&products_id=39). I'm afraid I don't know of any suppliers in your neck of the woods, so I'm afraid shipping might eat you alive, regardless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No suppliers on this side of the Atlantic; I have to import saddle trees and hardware, so I guess I can take the cost of shipping a couple of boy scout canteens too. / Knut Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WinterBear Report post Posted March 23, 2012 Well, at least a couple of canteens will weight less than a saddle tree. You planning to make some leather-covered canteens? I'd love to see them when you are done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldtimer Report post Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) Knut i found some here. http://www.legendaryarms.com/meca.html I searched civil war canteen you may be able to find some more. Thank´s ! I will check if they will ship abroad. Stainless steel is clean. I bought a cheap Chinese canteen made of aluminum and it had a terrible smell inside that couldn´t be removed even after I boiled it for a long while, so it went straight into the metal recycling. / Knut PS canteen ordered!
