M7479-102000-2

The m/1895 was replaced by the stainless steel Kokkärl m/40. It was shorter than the m/1895 and the shape changed from "kidney" to oval. Due to costs an aluminum version, the m/44, entered production in 1944. In my sometimes-not-so-humble opinion, the Kokkärl m/40 is the Mercedes Benz of mess tins. Not only is it nearly indestructible, it was issued with a well-designed set of accessories: windscreen, alcohol stove, fuel bottle, cup, eating utensils, etc.

This mess kit includes the following items:


The meth burner (Svea) is made from brass. It is a little larger than most meth burners but the extra capacity means you can get a burn of up to one half hour which is great when you want to cook a large meal and then put your coffee/tea water on to boil while you eat the meal.

The large pot can hold approx 1,5 l of water. It fits into the wind shield and onto the pot stand. The pot also has a handle and a hook for cooking over an open flame fire.

The smaller pot 0.7 liters has a few functions acting as lid for the large pot while cooking, a smaller pot for boiling water and a cup for drinking out of. Handle is complete with both D-rings which allow a stick, or any other items to be inserted for removal from hot cooking area.
