Nalgene/guyot backpacker - uk suppliers?

[Mick721]

Has anyone got an idea where I can pick up one of these for a reasonable price. All the suppliers I've looked at are a bit steep (up to£50)?

these seem ok

or is that not what your after?

 

[tom.moran]

found one at £30

why stainless steel though?

Why not ? ?

 

[tom.moran]

Because they are heavy

 

[ozzy1977]

Not a problem though

FirstAscent is a nalgene distributor, but the SS bottles have disappeared from their online store.

Though the MSR bottles on there look spiffy.

Does it have to be a Nalgene?
If not I can recommend one of the Klean Kanteen range, I have a few and the 40oz wide mouth one will also nest snugly into a stainless GSI glacier cup if that's a consideration.

I think you can boil water with it, bit weird that it is associated with Nalgene famed for their BPP free plastics. Might have to look into these myself.

 

[tom.moran]

Ok that would make sense

Heinnie have the pathfinder bottles in too, if looking for something else

Cheers for all your replies gentleman. Maybe I should have explained a bit better. I'm actually looking for a bottle that will nest into the Stanley adventure cook pot. It doesn't have to be stainless steel but the backpacker is the only 1l bottle I can find that tapers so the pot fits over the bottle then the gsi mug fit over the bottom of the pot. It's for a new cook set I'm putting together that fits into a maxpedition 10 x 4 style bottle pouch.

On amazon.com the backpacker is only $18. Over here they seem to start at £30. Just thought it was a tad steep.
