Finnish Army current model canteen. A very practical water bottle with a large opening and a metal hook for carrying without a pouch. You know this piece of kit is pretty good because the soldiers don't complain about it.

This has a few advantages compared to its peers. First, the mouth is large and the threads too. This means the bottle is easier to fill, easier to clean and resists freezing a tad better while the cap screws on the right threads easily. Second, The rectangular shape makes this easier to pack and use in general. Third - it still is almost exactly the same general size of the classic US 1 quart bottle, so it fits in the same pouches (M56, ALICE and such).

As a funny tradition, this has a metal carrying hook on it. It's better than nothing, but not really THAT useful if you have a pouch.

Made by Plastex, made in Finland. These are made with strict quality control of proper plastic. If you need a solid, simple plastic water bottle, can't go wrong with this.

washed it with normal dish soap and no soap smell or taste stuck to it. So right there thats a great thing. The clip feels dumb and all that, but when you clip it to yourself. it sits against you rather nicely because of the curve of it. so I kinda like the clip. The bottle doesn't leak, and i've squeezed it when filled. Has no off smells or flavors from the plastic. It's just a good canteen, and really cheap as well. Only really question is what happens if you add a drink mix like liquid Iv to the water inside, will the smell and flavor of that stick like it does in other bottles?

Fantastic little canteen. Feels sturdy and is very comfortable to hold. It also doesn't fall over as easily as US canteens. The aperture is bigger than American canteens however.
