Swedish Army Mess Kit

Hi guys,

Just found a new and unused Swedish Army Mess Kit on eBay. Its the aluminium version, but its going for quite a cheap price.
There's only two left if you want to snatch one!

Here's the link:

Thanks for the link but if I bought another mess kit I think my wife would either kill me or file for divorce.

It looks like it is just the pot and the lid. No firebox or burner or fuel bottle.

Its very rare though that you'll ever find the pot and lid in an unused condition.

The addiction to buy mess kits is unreal! If you do buy the Swedish Army Mess Kit, the divorce is probably worth it! Haha!

Great pieces of kit managed to snag a used stainless steel one last year, it looked a state but I just sanded all the tatty green paint off and left it shiny and much better.. strong piece of kit if you dont mind the weight

Ironically wives tend to end up with the really good items in the divorce settlements so she'd probably get the mess kit!

LOL very true, no doubt she'd ask for all my mess kits in the settlement out of spite. I think I'll stick with my German M31 kit that I managed to sneak in the house.

Hi guys,

Just an update, the seller is now selling the unused pot and pan, alongside used alcohol burners and wind shields!

£25?
For that price you can have mine and I'll include an original mug, a can opener and a satchel of cleaning rags.

I like my Swedish cook set with the Trangia burner - it lives in my van at all times.
The first ones (yes - more than one then) cost £15 but soon the price fell to £9 (this was in a shop - not on-line) but it now looks like Rarity Value has pushed the price way up again.
They are good (if weighty) cook sets and I wish I had kept a couple more to sell on now!
