Hey guys,

I love the Mors pot, but at £45 it's quite steep for what is basically an aluminium pot.

Can anyone recommend a similarly sized (1.6l) aluminium pot that comes with bale? Even one that doesn't, as I don't mind drilling a few holes and fitting my own.

It seems the bale is the hardest criterium to tick - originally I had planned on picking up a Ti pot but failed to find any EU sources of a 1.6l pot with bale - TOAKS do one but it's US only as far as I can see - which at approx £47 (plus duties of course) really shows the mark up on the Mors pot.

Many thanks as always

12cm Zebra pot for £12

Yes mate trying to stay away from SS - ideally Aluminium or Titanium -

Although smaller, you can get the TOAK Ti 1.1l for almost the same cost as the Al Mors Pot,

Pathfinder Bush Pot... atleast available (Heinnie has 'em) for £35.

I believe Open Country make the Mors Pots. http://www.opencountrycampware.com/products/CAMPING-EQUIPMENT/Coffee-Perks-and-Boilers/
Whilst the 5 & 12 cup versions cheap... no 8 cup.

Ah shoot, the 7-8 cup (1.6-1.8l) is the size I'm after. Great prices on them tho huh!

Looks like a zebra with the lip bent out and a thinner bail. I prefer the tatonka 1.6 liter billy, and excellent piece of kit IMHO, fried spam in the lid at the weekend while poaching eggs in the main pot, lovely.

What about these from Alpkit if you don't mind modifying your pan:

And if you don't want to modify it:

The fitted pan handles can be easily removed and reattached too.

Cheers, Michael.

Wowee, hadn't seen that chain set before - very clever!

do you mind me asking why no steel? usually people worry about aliminium

For the weight, mate. I'm not a worrier, so a suggested link to alzheimer's doesn't bother me.

I'd go with Titanium for the cool factor, but IMO it underperforms as cookware with it's poor heat transfer. Ti frying pan? Harharhar!
