The kettle Ray uses

[littlebiglane]

Sorry to mention RM.

Its been bugging me for a while. In several of his programmes he is using a certain kettle over the campfire that I am trying to locate. Its very much in the same style as the one here but much larger - I would say at least 2 if not near 3 litres though http://www.outwell.dk/Furniture.aspx?b=Outwell&bid=2&lid=1&l=en-GB&ProductId=1058&pid=9&CatId=300

Do you know the one I mean? Any ideas where it can be got from (hopefully in the UK)

Thanks

Hi Littlebiglane,

The kettle and matching cook set are made by a company called Eagle Products. I have only ever seen them in Norway and have searched but never found them on the internet. If you know anyone in Norway maybe they could get them, but brace your self as they aren't cheap!

Hope this helps

Here you go: http://www.eagleproducts.no/

Look under Stalartikler.

I have the anodized Al billies and the Excellent Turwok, The Turwok is brilliant!

Eagle Products Stalartikler, very tough and well made kettles

The XXL sports shop in Oslo do them, I do not know if they ship to the UK though

Hi

The MSR alpine kettle would be a good alternative if you cant get the exact one RM uses.

Yee Gods! 379 Euros for a kettle! You said brace yourself!

 

[Mr Adoby]

Nope. 379 NOK is about 43 EUR or £38.

Very good kettle, its 1.5 litre. This chap sells them, kettle plus postage is about £42

Yeahbut, it's not a 'Ray Kettle'!

I can't see a spout or pouring hole in the kettle, except in the middle. Does this mean you have to tip it upside down to get _all_ the water out? If so, it seems pretty impractical to me.

There is a spout - left had side of picture/kettle, top mounted, quite small.

I had a look at the Outwell and the MSR in Blacks today. Not much to tell them apart to be honest.
I think the Outwell was 1.2L and the MSR 1.3L

About £10 difference in Blacks.

I was tempted but I managed to resist getting either. I did get a little stool for £2.99 because the bag had a small rip in it.

primus do a nice kettle in their litech range.
i own the larger 1.5l tea/coffee kettle and the litech frying pan, both of these are perfect for my open fire cooking kit.
together they weigh 463g which isnt too bad either.
it did make me laugh when i was in the camping shop and the guy behind the counter couldnt understand why i would use the kettle as a billy can!
it was only when i took it out of the box and showed him how easy it was to fit a spoon inside the wide brim did he see the potential in owning one.

Mine doesn't - I just have to tip it, not turn it upside down!
