Product Description
We found a bunch of parts in the warehouse to make up some of these canteens for reenactors. They're made from aluminum 0.7 liter WWII Swedish army canteens with new repro wool covers, leather straps and reproduction aluminum cups. Straps are attached to the canteen caps. Best thing is that the canteen bottles are very clean and serviceable so you can drink out of them. Good starter canteen or loaner. Canteen bottles are used and should be sanitized before use. We recommend using a tablespoon of bleach and hot water to sanitize the bottle, then an "Efferdent" or similar denture cleaning tablet to clean the bottle.

M31 Canteen
After testing the canteen and setting it up to my breadbag I have only one concern and that's the leather used for the strap. It doesn't look like it will last long at all, the hole is almost completely split open after only being used twice. Fortunately (Perhaps coincidentally) there is an individual strap for purchase which will likely be the next item I acquire. It's also not exactly quick to access but that's probably accurate to history.
