View Full Version : Group buy: Swedish Army stainless steel mess kits and rucksacks
Bumblebee
05-10-2005, 19:55
After beeing contacted by many of you I have decided to do a third and final group buy, after this one I will not do another one! Also packing is really boring and time consuming so if someone could donate a old CD or two I would be grateful. :cool:
As before I will gather orders from you until the 15th, and then order the stuff from Sweden. Payment information will be sent out to you at that stage, I accept PayPal (if you pay the charges), cheque, money order or cash.
To order just post in this thread clearly stating what you would like.
Prices are as follows:
Unissued stainless steel mess kits £9.00
Used stainless steel mess kits £7.00
Spare burners £1.50
Kuksa (plastic cup designed to fit in the mess kit) £1
Unissued LK-70 Bergan/rucksack £37.50
Leather shoelaces (makes nice lanyards!) £2
This is at cost so I won't make any money on this, if I do make a few pounds I will donate them to BCUK. See the two other threads here (http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community/showthread.php?t=6848) and here (http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community/showthread.php?t=7620) for comments etc from previous buyers.
Mess kits comes complete with pot & lid, burner, windshield & small spirit bottle. They are over 40 years old so even the unissued ones can have a minor blemish, the used ones can be quite battered. I would seriously recommend everybody to choose the unissued version.
The spare burners can be either unissued or used, the previous group buys have seriously depleted their stocks!
P&P for one mess kit is £5 and £8 for two. P&P for one LK-70 is £8.50. Combinations etc contact me.

OK, will do but probably won't have time until Saturday. It has an external frame and the bag can actually be removed from the frame so you can strap on something else instead.

Regarding CD's surprise me! :D
I listen to reggae (Bob Marley rulez!), some pop, jazz, classical, rock, classical hard rock etc and I avoid trance, goa, rave, metal, britney spears and other groups with looks but no talent etc

Has anyone ever seen any of these rucksacks for sale in the United States, in a store or otherwise? I did see the original website for the rucksacks but can't make heads or tails of it.
I have seen (and bought) a similar setup using the same frame but the sack or pack was a simple not quite rectangular bag with not external pockets and only half length. Your bedroll has to be strapped below. The waistbelt, especially the leather part, is very interesting.

07-10-2005, 13:09
I might as well jump on the bandwagon.
Can I have:
1 rucsack
1 unissued mess kit
4 Kuksas
Thank you so much for doing this.
Eric
Please Bumblebee, I would like to place an order for the rucksack. A cheque from me will reach you by the deadline you indicate, 15th October.On the picture it looks like the rucksack comes in 2 different shades of green. Does it? Do we have to choose a shade? Maybe it is just how the pic came out and there is just one colour.
Many many thanks for this wonderful opportunity you give us to receive this high quality Swedish equipment and for the trouble of obtaining it and taking all our orders!
Nomade
Sorry I was too quick sending my previous order.
Additions to it:
2 pairs of shoe laces
1 cup
Thanks Bumblebee!

I think that only full members can edit their posts, yet another reason to pay the yearly fee! Running a site like this costs serious amounts of money and the full member fee is more or less the only income Tony has for this site...

If possible can I increase my order adding 6 Unissued Mess Kits & 6 cups
making total order 7 mess kits 7 cups 1 spare burner. Not trying to be greedy but I run a Sea Cadet Unit, teaching expedition training & running D of E expeds.
Please PM if payment required up front

Seriously tho, I am sure we all really appreciate the work that goes into a group order.

I know the work that goes into a group buy and we cannot thank Tommy enough. It is bad enough that his efforts go unrewarded financially but for him to be out of pocket is entirely unacceptable. So if you have not paid DO IT NOW. Or I will be round to slap you with a wet fish :eek:

Mine has arrived but I assume that Tommy can only post a few a day. I can post about 15 hammocks a day but I would imagine that 2 or 3 rucksacks would be the max per post office trip.

Due to a newly operated dog and the fact that I have been busy having interviews etc for a new job I haven't been able to ship very much yet, sorry! As MagiKelly says this stuff is bulky & heavy and no local post office have dedicated parking space! :rant:
I know that you all are waiting eagerly for your gear, so have patience for just a few days more.

I for one can wait for as long as it takes and good luck with the interviews.
I don't envy you humping that lot to the Post Office, especially if it's anything like ours where they growl at anyone with anything bigger than a benefit book.

I believe they are delivering to those with proper hammocks first :p
One of my hammocks must be a "proper" one (I have six! :p ).
I now believe there is a conspiracy against me - I have just seen a postman carrying a very large box, not to my door but the the post office across the road, I may have to go and demand to see it :confused: . 12oclock another meal time passes, if it does'nt arrive soon I won't have to open the door to get out I'll be able to slip thru the letterbox!

Did posty brink it? was it a carrier?
Is it one person delivering all of them, if so he could have just left IOW, right now he's on the ferry, heading for the A303, he will probably be travelling faster now as the pile has got lighter :D
I'll just go and peek out the letterbox again.

Got a piece of paper through the letterbox today telling me it was there waiting for me, at the post office. went down to pick it up, and am well impressed! Thanks again mate, you're hard work is definately appreciated! :) Gonna stick a matching lanyard on my knife, axe, and kuksa (when i get around to carving one! :lmao: ) And the rucksack is a comfy fit. The mess kit is different to my ali one, a bit smaller, and quite solid. I was a bit worried when i saw that there was a hole in the side of my trangia stove, but tested it and it seems to work fine... Happy Days! :cool:

Theres a gap in the join between the top and the base of the stove. Its fairly small, and only a small flame comes out of it when the stove is heating up. Once its hotter, and theres a flame coming out of all the smaller burner holes, it dies off. I'll post a pic at some point, but my digi cam is in my locker at college. It isnt a problem, like i said, the stove works fine, and i dont carry the stove while it contains alchohol, so i have no fears of it leaking.

Ahh, you mean the burner is leaking, sorry about that. I'll try to get you another one.
Really mate, its not a problem! My main reason for requesting a mess kit was that id prefer the stainless over the alu one i allready have. So the extra stove was just a bonus. And like i said, it works fine! :) But thanks for the offer anyway!

Hi Bumblebee,
A package arrived yesterday all safe and sound, until that is, the post lady dropped it as she got out of her van. "Oh ****", she said.
My mrs said "Oh you should be alright, its bushcraft stuff". Possibly thinking that Bushcraft might be linked with Witchcraft, she shot off in rather a hurry.
Just to let you know that everything has arrived safely, and I will be trying out the kits at the weekend when I get some meths.
Cheers.
p.s. Any news on the job?

Well, the process is ongoing, I have had two telephone interviews that went really well and tomorrow I will travel to Google's office in London to be grilled for 4 hours! Needless to say that I am a bit nervous at the moment...

When you have received your gear and are happy with everything I would be happy if you gave me a reputation point by clicking on the scales in the header of any of my posts.

Bumblebee, put him out of his misery and post his kit now :D :D
Mine arrived yesterday!
Many thanks!
Brilliant
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! it's arrived :You_Rock_
Thanks a million Tommy :D
Already taken the harness off and fitted my one from the LK35, a little work one the waist belt and I should have one hell of a pack.
As I suspected its made by one of the big swedish makers (Haglofs) and the quality is as high as you would expect.
A very happy Neil

Arrived tuesday when I was at work - fortunately my postie was able to stick it in my recycling tub which I'd left out :) Unfortunately it was chucking it down all evening so was 'forced' to play with the burners by the kitchen door.
Thanks again
