The Pathfinder School Canteen Cooking Set

I picked up The Pathfinder School Canteen Cooking Set just in time for my current camping trip, and wow, it’s been a total game-changer! I’m out in the woods right now, and this kit has already proven itself worth every penny. The stainless steel build is rock-solid—I’ve been using it over an open fire for the past two nights, and it’s holding up like a champ. No warping, no nonsense, just pure durability. The wide-mouth canteen is a lifesaver out here. I’ve been filling it from a little creek nearby, and it boils water so fast for my morning coffee. The nesting cup and stove slide together perfectly, which keeps everything compact in my pack. Last night, I cooked up some chili in the cup for my girlfriend and I heated up some bone broth from my Canteen for myself, and those batwing handles made it a breeze to handle over the flames. The whole set fits snugly into the pouch, so it’s not rattling around while I hike. I can tell this was designed by folks who really know the outdoors—every piece feels practical and tough. I’m only a few days into this trip, but it’s already clear this gear is built to last. It’s a bit of a splurge, sure, but for something this reliable, I’d say it’s a steal. If you’re into camping or bushcraft, grab this set—you won’t regret it.

Great, durable, solid traditional GI style canteen and cup. They all fold together very well and sit in a pack nicely. The material construction is very high quality and the cup works very well for cooking stews and soups. The stove makes using esbitt tablets very easy. 10/10

Great set, does exacly what it says, even videos are good on YouTube where they plainly tell you the cap will melt folk, be smarter than that.

In the description it pictures multiple threads on the canteen but mine has only 1 1/2 threads. Lid seams to secure okay and doesn't leak. My concern is after frequent use, will the threads hold up. Found a tiny ding on the bottom of the canteen but you really had to be looking for it to find it. I think this kit is fine for the occasional outdoor trip or a get home bag set up. Maybe the designers reduced the number of threads on the canteen to help prevent cross threading perhaps? Maybe someone in the reviews could confirm that. Overall I think it's okay.

This is probably the best canteen rig I've had during my 70 years on this planet. I've had several others. The canteen lid is not attached with a chain so the canteen can be heated on a campfire without melting the cap or detaching a chain. The mouth is very wide and more convenient to fill, empty, or drink from. It's all stainless steel so no leeching into your food or coffee like with aluminum. The canteen, nesting cup, and included stove all nest together perfectly. The cup lid fits perfectly in the bottom of the carry case. The stove works well with a small wood fire or Trangia alcohol stove but I have not tried other heating options yet. The carry case is adequate but cheap. I can forgive that. Overall, everything is of very good quality and I expect it will eventually outlast me.

High quality canteen and cook/mess kit. Highly recommend

10/10. Great Quality and very applicable in outdoor uses

This is a very good kit. Actually, I'm surprised regarding some the negative comments. First, mine DOES NOT leak. I'm not sure how it could. The seam is 100% perfect all around and polished as to make the welded area invisible, save for the tell-tale flange. Second, the mollie strapping WORKS. I have it on my ruck and it stays put. No rotation at all. Third, the cup handle has a metal tab that you need to slide into place to prevent the cup handle from folding under when you are using it. It's somewhat easy to miss, but once you see it, you'll know what it's for. :) Finally, the pouch. Ok, it's not canvas maybe the old days, but it appears to be solid. Time will tell, but I'm not worried. Now, due to the nature of the design, you'll need to be careful when/if placing the cup on an MSR pocket rocket or similar canister stove. It will fit, but you won't have much margin of error. If you use the included stove stand instead of a canister stove, you are faced with (1) building a traditional fire (if circumstances allow), (2) using an Esbit tablet, or (3) a small alcohol stove like a Trangia. In fact, the Trangia is a PERFECT addition to this kit. The included stove stand makes a stand for the Trangia - though you will need to carry alcohol. Overall, very pleased. A bit pricey, yes, but you get what you pay for.

It had a pretty much invisible leak right below where the little ridge/lip thing is halfway up the canteen itself. The photos show that it comes with the newer handles, but it actually comes with the older one that folds under it. I wouldn't mind so much if the thing didn't come with a puncture. Still, it would be better to actually take the time to make sure your photos match up with the product you're charging so much money for.

Excellent product however I bought the kit because it stated “with molle pouch” I did not received the pouch though hence the 3 star rating a so would have to by a pouch separately now

Compact Design, Quality Product
