Bushcraft Pots - Titanium, Stainless Steel, Or Copper?


bushcraft pots


There are several types of bushcraft pots. You can choose between a Titanium, Stainless steel, or Copper one. Whether you plan to use it in the Open Country or the city, you will want to buy a pot with a wide range of uses. The uberleben Kessel Bushcraft Pot is perfect for small amounts of water throughout the day. It will boil enough water to make three cups of coffee. Here are the advantages of each.

Titanium

Among the many benefits of Titanium bushcraft pots, the best feature is that they're incredibly lightweight. Despite the metal's light weight, however, titanium's inertness makes it useless for cooking and for bushcraft pots. Its main use is for spoons and the internal frames of large rucksacks. However, these advantages are hardly worth paying extra for this metal in bushcraft pots.

Stainless steel

Stainless steel bushcraft pots have many benefits over their aluminum or plastic counterparts. They are scratch-resistant and lightweight, and can withstand a lot of abuse, making them ideal for backpackers, guides, and institutions that cook for large groups of people. Although stainless steel is more expensive, it is the most durable material for pots, and is stronger and harder to scratch than other materials. These materials are used to produce dependable and simple systems such as the MSR Alpine(tm) Line.

Copper

Hundreds of years ago, copper pots were very common. Today, copper pots are made of stainless steel with a copper base, making them perfect bushcraft tools. Be careful not to overfill your pot with food, as the copper will conduct heat and burn food if not stirred frequently. Copper is beautiful, but it's not a Porsche! Here are some tips to help you find the perfect copper bushcraft pot.

Open Country

One of the first products I bought from Open Country was a bushcraft pot. The pots were created in collaboration with bushcrafter Don Kevilus. This company is part of The Metal Ware Corporation. One of their bushcraft pots, the "Mors," was hard-anodized. Check out their video below to learn more. They also make several different sizes. The most popular bushcraft pot is the two-quart.

MSR

While MSR's cookware looks nice, they are not as aesthetically pleasing as other brands. They also have poor handles and may be more difficult to hang. This is no big deal, however, as the handle is a notch in the middle and will not be ruined by a roaring fire. Aside from that, they also have graduated measurements and foldaway handles. In addition, they have a compartment for a stove, small gas cylinder, and lighter or matches.
