A look at my current cook kit for the outdoors. This equipment is regulalry swapped out to accomodate the number of people with me, how many I am cooking for and what I may have available in terms of the food with me and wild edibles to compliment that.

The sharp knife is a nice touch.

@akeeperofoddknowledge4956 8 лет назад

Thank you for the reminder! I bought that exact same cook set ( and interlocking knife, fork and spoon set) back in the late 80s for my camping trip in the Blue ridge mountains. Copper- clad bottoms and everything. Used it on that one trip, packed away and forgot about it. Now I got to find where I stashed it. But thanks for reminding me!

@Skooty68 13 лет назад

A very nice cook set that mate.

@MrGattor33 9 лет назад

Great video, I am very impressed with the little containers of seasonings and really cool use of the Altoids can. You just gave me another way of carrying things such as the bouillon cubes and salt and pepper packets..... Once again great little video and tips. thanks!!

@shevan613 12 лет назад

Very nice kit! Going to get it my self. Its just what I was looking for!

@ImASurvivorNThriver 10 лет назад

Nice kit!

@kan-zee 12 лет назад

Good kit. This is so important. so many peeps I hear, get these great cook kits, yet once there rations are gone, they suffer greatly, from malnurishment, even the transition from a well fueled body, to missing a few days of food, make ppl mentally instable. Even the coolest heads , have got to eat daily..7 days I went without a bite..a bush fast and I was so changed and realized the importance of being able to cook food from nothing. Only coals, rockboiling, sundrying,opps I'm off topic.lol

@Lellobeetle 11 лет назад

Nice kit

@kan-zee 8 лет назад

Really like your Functional Kit...and also the Great Tip of the damage proofing your condiments, using the altoid tin...Good Stuff MTFBWY Jedi !! ;-)

@martinadejaquiz2482 8 лет назад

i do like it..thank you4vid!

@AdventuresWithDad 13 лет назад

That's a very nice kit you put together there, packs up really nice and makes a lot of sense...love the quality of the copper bottom too, function is worth a bit of weight imo (thumbs up)

@Jeepollllllo 10 лет назад

Real nice kit, good idea keeping all the spices and such with the kit. ollllllllo

@jediknightofthewoods 10 лет назад

Thanks for taking the time to watch! The kit has been updated and redesigned since this was uploaded so fee free to see the later vids with how its all changed. In fact, I will upload a new one in the next day or so. Cheers and all the best!

@Nabagabo22 5 лет назад

Many thanks for showing us this kit - finally something you can actually cook some food on! The ultralight single 750ml pot seems to be centred on boiling water for drinks and rehydrating food but looks to be too limited to cook food on easily. I'm working my way to a 1 litre pot, a frying pan lid, nested small kettle and nested insulated mug standing in the kettle. I've worked out an insulated mug keeps hot drinks hot for longer in the cold outdoors, a kettle means easy fill and use without food residue worries, a pot gives you a chance to cook in volume (pasta, potatoes, rice etc) while a frying pan lid provides a second cooking utensil for other ingredients that need heating but not boiling. If this can be landed without too much cost or weight this might be a winning combination! Keep up the good work!

You made a good choice stainless steel won't rust

@Davey14 11 лет назад

Nice set up.

@presterjohn71 11 лет назад

That's a great well thought out and above all realistic set up. I wish you had titled the video Gelert Solo kit though as I was looking for a review of one of those sets on here quite recently and could not find one.

@fleabag72 12 лет назад

Well, i bought a crepe pan, (basically a low sided lightweight ali frying pan, mega non-stick qualites) tried bacon & eggs on my honey stove/white box duo combo last night, performed great if only a little to hot for scrambled egg , without having to keep removing from heat but i was really impressed....

@mryellow123 13 лет назад

Checkout the Enjo micro fibre stuff for cleaning, they have a small scouring pad. Will lift grease with fibres, gets into the tiny holes. Simply wash (dissolve grease from cloth with soap made from ash+tallow) sunlight (UV) disinfect. Reusable and sanitary.

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Hi Apemanking! Its a Wynnster branded set. They cost around £20 I thnk, if you can find them that is. I am using my Crusader mess tin at the moment, though this is a cracking set and one I will definitely use again. Thanks and all the best!

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

hinokagutsuchio - thanks very much! Really appreciate your feedback!

@JohnSmith-pd1fz 8 лет назад

Nice little set Mate. and yes, there are still similar modern sets around. The Stansport 1 Set for one. There is no bag with it though which I'd say was as disadvantage if you are travelling light and want to hang the set on your belt.

@adrianlitrico3885 4 года назад

Excelente !! Es el más funcional. Mejor que una marmita militar. Saludos ✌️🇦🇷✌️

@mryellow123 13 лет назад

Worth noting, requires water supply, water is the "solvent" as such.

@hinokagutsuchio 13 лет назад

good vid...keep it up.

@2000jonniblaze 11 лет назад

very nice

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

@shevan613 Glad to have been of service. I am going to be using a zebra billy as my cook set for a while, may go back to this one again some time because I really like it. This one, the zebra and the crusader mess tin are a rotation that I will be using. Thanks for stopping by to comment!

@hoosierarcher 11 лет назад

I know this vid has been up for a year or so; but I missed it before. JKotW I really like the kit. Very welk thought out. I think I just may have to copy it. Thanks

@Occupuyourspine Год назад

I did not see a cup that is a Boy Scouts mess kit. 🤠

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Hi Wayne! The set is made by Wynnster. If you search for "Wynnster stainless steel cookset" you should find a number of different variations of this set for 1, 2 or more people. some sets have additional pots and pans etc with fold out handles etc, and as far as I know all the sets come with a plastic cup and a stuff sack. Hope this helps!

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Hi Gadgetdragon! Thsi has changed a lot now. Using teh 14cm Zebra Billy for a while as it compliments other things I am taking with me a bit more than this set did. I tend to swap between bits to suit my mood, the environment, who is coming with me and all that jazz, sometimes it might just be the Crusader mess tin for example if its just me. All the best and thanks for taking the time!

@randydavis9324 10 лет назад

45 years ago, when I was a boy scout, they taught us to put Joy dishwashing liquid on the outside of the mess kit before you cook with it. I still take the same one with me now, and it looks almost new, except for a couple of dents.

@GospelTruth37059 8 лет назад

NIce :) A link to where you purchased it would be nice as well.

@danraigm 7 лет назад

would like to know that too.

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Thanks for the comment snappa222, and I couldnt agree more!

@seandognevius4873 8 лет назад

I gave this vid a like because the copper shine and case for stowage.

@kamelot4324 8 лет назад

nice and practical. Just the way I like it. good kit

@dimitrielledge 10 лет назад

Very good video! Can you tell me where you bought this kit? And for how much?

@jediknightofthewoods 10 лет назад

Check online for Highlander Festival cook kit, or I think Tatonka does one similar in their range. Cheers!

@ronsisk3181 8 лет назад

I really like that. Like the way you organized to keep it neat and tidy also. Who makes that, do you know?

@oldguy537 12 лет назад

just picked one of these up on eBay , looks like a good kit, I never worry about the weight myself , I'm always carrying extras for the 'just in case scenario' so it makes little difference ..

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Hey Mo, good to see ya stop by, and thanks for the comments! This is an area of development for me at the moment, still keeping my trusty Altoids tin for sure, but some developmental thinking going on around the other cook kit items, so watch this space...all the best...Jedi

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Hi mate, I have had that kit for some time now, a couple of years at least. It always gets a real good clean after use and I always find that SS can be a little more forgiving with burned foods. Round walled pots are easier to clean, they seem to distribute heat nicely and its easier to slide a utensil like a spatula under things. I will try a few sources for you and let you know if I get any results.

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Hey Sameee! thanks for the comments!

@MrJimmuck 10 лет назад

That s a good video ..... well done. I use the same cook set ... the Gelert Trek 1 and find it very good. I however still use the bag it came in but have been looking for something like the one in your video, Can you tell me where you got it? By the way kit is always kept as you keep yours. Atb and stay safe Jim

@SandmanSect8 10 лет назад

really like that kit, like the copper bottoms to, never see that in survival cooking gear, got a website to order a set off of? great run down on the cook set to, keep up the great vids.

@ERprepper 11 лет назад

I think I have the exact same set up. The first time I used mine I used vegetable oil and half of the bottom of the pan is jet black... Its definitely in the "used" category now lol but I do like the set up

@user-pj4gb4iv3m 9 лет назад

Прекрасный набор !!!

@jublywubly 11 лет назад

Great review. Thanks for making it. :-) I have one of the aluminium kits you mentioned. I forgot how quickly it heats up. I'll have to swap it out for something else. Perhaps a titanium kit. I like your kit, but it's a bit larger than I need.

@quercus417 12 лет назад

Great cook kit, charcoal from your fire will clean the outside of your pots if you have the water to spare. Thank you.

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

I get your point, however, on the matter of spilling, a shallower larger bottom pot is less likely to spill over than a taller deeper pot. This set was mainly used for frying food like mushrooms, bacon etc. Boiling water was never an issue as I always have my brew kit as well, which has a GSI glacier/Tatonka mug and a stainless steel Guyot designs bottle, so water boiling/purification was covered big style! To be fair my cook kit has changed quite a bit since this video, new one on the way.

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

The Honey stove would be great for soing your bacon and eggs, but with natural fuels of sticks and twigs. Let them burn down a fair bit to coals and you will have much better heat for that type of cooking. IMHO the white box, pop can or similar types of stove are great for water boiling, or for cooking up water intensive foods like pasta, rice, stews etc but are very limited for cooking on. I have just got the Folding Firebox stove as a bigger option over my hobo stove for bbq's and grilling!

@aquakinggeorge2299 2 года назад

Hi Jedi! Am fr the Philippines, where can I buy the cook set and for how much, to include the pouch? Very nice! Thank you very much.

@shadow0966 8 лет назад

what is the name of this mess kit , it would suit my travels perfectly .

@TED1082 8 лет назад

Thanks for this Video! One Question: I allready buyed this Mess Kit and I am scared if the Handle ever comes apart the Pan because there are only 3 smale Weltingpoints. Can You tell how long you got yours and was there any Problem with Handle? Thank You!

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Two great channels and two great lads in person as well! I dont think you can go wrong with Tenth Wonder that Foxy likes so much, great value for money! Now, in terms of cook sets, question is what type of cooking will you be doing? open fire or gas stove? I dont like aluminium due to its performance in high heat, and I am not a fan of titanium due to its cost, stainless steel is great but the heaviest choice. Zebra billie are amazing and I team mine with a crusader mess tin now. All the best!

@jediknightofthewoods 11 лет назад

Its very shiny isnt it! I do always clean my kit thoroughly when I get home. To be honest with you, this cook kit ended up a crock of pants after about a year. I chopped and changed to a zebra billy then back again to this one, it got a ton of use but durability was not very good at all long term. Its a shame because I loved the component parts and the functionality of wider shallow pots. but the materials just didnt stack up. I am now using the Zebra 14cm lunchbox, like the stowaway pot.

@kan-zee 12 лет назад

@MrBushLife where was I ? ohh yeah..that is a fine cook set you got there JKW. thanks for sharing. :-))

I liked the setup but what about cups?

@tallard666 9 лет назад

Love your kit, looks like mine. Unfortunately, my kit has run its life's course... over a decade, and I can no longer find this wonderful little solo cook set. Everything in stores these days seems to be huge! You did not mention the name of your cookset in the video. Looking forward to your response. The fry-pan lid that serves as a plate is so out of vogue. Apparently, campers DO NOT fry any more?! There is no better egg than a fried egg. I do prefer non-stick... it is not unhealthy as long as the surface is intact.

@jediknightofthewoods 9 лет назад

Hey! Thanks for taking the time to comment on this one! Very out of date now, and this set has long since gone to the great cook set in the sky, wasnt too thick or durable! There is however possible one way I can point you in the right direction in that I do believe that Tatonka brand has an identical looking and feeling set to this, in stainless steel. Have a search for the Tatonka Camp Set Regular. Hope that helps!

@seanbautista7972 11 лет назад

The cook set looks new. Like you've never taken it out in the field.

@jediknightofthewoods 13 лет назад

Thanks, I have updated ita bit since the video, so I may do another one soon to demonstrate.

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

@MrBushLife Couldnt agree more. I have an interest in survival psychology (not a subject I have got round to on my channel yet cos most people like to see new shiny sharp gear stuff rather than vids on how the mind body works) but I do test my body in extremes of cold (warm is a bit difficult in the UK! :-)) and going without food for lengths of time is something I do regularly (not dangerously though) and over time I am learning to adjust myself accordingly. I Dont get cranky anymore! lol!

@joshuagossman2721 9 лет назад

what are the dimensions of the pouch. would like to now have to order three or four and then return the ones not needed. thank you.

@ManLand 9 лет назад

This set... the actual stainless steel that is...Is called the Stansport Mess Kit. I just did a review of it. Got it from Ebay... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BA30HnLzYq8.html In case your interested. I have been cooking on this thing for 3 days now in my kitchen. The copper coating is a joke...most has already came off or scratched...but the steel itself is okidokie...yes it's thin but not bad. The bail on the pot drops into the fire when used as a normal pot and not as a billy can. A simple "S" hook fixed that problem.

@williamjones9459 9 лет назад

Thanks brother.

@ManLand 9 лет назад

William Jones Hey thanks brother...I'm not an expert on this set but I got one and tried it...and I have my likes and dislikes...but overall...I am Satisfied especially for the price.

@ManLand 8 лет назад

William Jones I also see that O Licamp has one very similar to this as well I got one from a felloweette YouTubian that I am trying to do a compare to...this cook off ought to be fun...

@not2fast4u2c 11 лет назад

could tell me the name of that cook kit where it can be bought ??

@marcwbrown 6 лет назад

can you please add a link as to where to buy?

@BarefootsChild 13 лет назад

Paul, how long have you had the Wynnster SS cookset? I have done a search on the net but everything that is showed is with pots and pots that have straight walls instead of the curved ones that your pots and and pans have. i prefer the rounded walls as opposed to the straight ones for several reasons. Can you help me locate some, please?

@1558k 8 лет назад

What is the name and where do you get the cookset? It surely is not the one found at Walmart.

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

@MrBushLife This kit has changed slightly now. I am looking to use the zebra billy but still keep the same capabilities for cooking through foraging, but also adding some additional capability and flexibility. Vids to come in a few weeks on my thoughts on that one. MTFBWY

@taylorfluffy746 11 лет назад

Where do I pickaxe one of these? I find similar things at the local wall mart but it isn't the same.

@asquirre 11 лет назад

Could you tell me the nam of this cook kit. Very nice Video

@charlesjoseph7750 11 лет назад

i have a Ozark Trail one just like it but mine has a wingnut type design and the metal is thinner now would it be good for cooking with over a fire??

@snappa222 13 лет назад

function over form every time for me

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Thanks for watching and commenting. This kit has changed and been upgraded quite significantly now to be honest. I am using a 14cm zebra billy along with a crusader mess tin as a two part cooking option to cover all my requirements, also my kettle fits nicely into the billy as well. I dont tend to over stuff my gear just because there is space and only really take condiments that I know I will use. IMHO there is no point in taking 20 spices if I will only use 5 of them. Cheers and all the best!

@garyherring761 9 лет назад

What about hot source. Napkins small fold up wash towl matches fire steel fire cubes

@jediknightofthewoods 9 лет назад

Gary Herring Yeah got all that in my up to date set up! Cheers!

@garyherring761 9 лет назад

Thats great when I am in the woods every one missing something they come to me to see if I have it

@sivkastijouza5908 10 лет назад

and whats the cost of your cooking set?

@1wetpaint 9 лет назад

What was the weight of your food for the trip?

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Thanks for watching! Check out my latest cook kit videos as they are more up to date than this one. This is a good little kit but I now vastly prefer the Crusader Mess tins and the additional option of the zebra billy. Cheers and all the best!

@dylancartwright2810 8 лет назад

where did you buy that mess it ?

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Watch my latest videos on my cook kits as these have evolved a bit since this one was posted. Cheers!

@fleabag72 12 лет назад

Great vids jedi, i have recently subscribed to 51foxy & bribo who have inspired me to buy a hammock/tarp etc now im on the hunt for a low cost cook set, 'but' the question is this! "Will my bacon stick to it like gaffatape? ?? Regards Lee

@jediknightofthewoods 11 лет назад

Thanks for watching. This is an older video, please check out my later video that has a much more comprehensive set of items. This cook kit was really just for frying some bacon, heating canned foods etc whereas the new video shows the modular approach, rather than just one element, of my entire cook kit. Let me know what you think after watching the new one if you have any constructive criticisms or suggestions.

@mexicanjumpingbear 11 лет назад

Whats the name of the kit

@dandowning83 10 лет назад

I will never understand why people get those locking knife/fork/spoon kits, with the space you have there you could put an actual stainless steel made for the kitchen, knife, fork, spoon, soup spoon and steak knife and be barely an ounce over your current weight with a whole range of tools and utensils at your disposal... Just my thoughts, nice video and a cool kit.

@cardojoal 6 лет назад

AH-LOO-MI-NUM! stop adding the 2nd i. anyway cool vid, informative

@jediknightofthewoods 12 лет назад

AHA! So you are an American brother eh! No worries! The correct pronunciation is actually Aluminium (or al-ew-min-ee-um). The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry adopted ALUMINIUM as the standard international name for the element in 1990, but being as three years later they accepted the American version ALUMINUM I will let you off! You will have to do better than that to catch a Jedi Knight out buddy! :-) I get your patriotism though! thanks for watching & all the best!

@r91976 8 лет назад

Bro you got it all wrong, aluminium is better for cooking than steel which is better than titanium. That is if we're talking same thickness of material and same cooking surface. A coppered base one of course is even better. That's what makes this set better than your aluminum ones, the fact that it has a copper bottom and not that it is ss. But given the weight penalty, you just can't beat aluminum.

@Diabolus1978 7 лет назад

r91976 eating aluminium is not healthy

@r91976 7 лет назад

+Daniel Karlsson First off, there is no concrete evidence of that. It's been linked to Alzheimer but no "hard" proof. Secondly we're not talking about your everyday cooking pots and pans. You're gonna use your lightweight camping/backpacking cooking set how often? Tops 12 times a year (let's say a weekend each month if you are really active with your outdoor activities). I can imagine of far more hazardous things to do to your body than cooking in an aluminum cookset 12 times each year.... Thirdly, the aluminum cookset allows you to be able to cook real food while backpacking without actually burning it (good luck trying to do that with those titanium or thin ss ones).Aluminum is just plainly a lot better thermal conductor as an element compared to titanium or iron (steel) It's also lighter than ss and titanium. So it clicks all the boxes when it comes to backpacking cooking imho.

@RedfishInc 5 лет назад

I have nothing against aluminum cookware. In fact I own a complete set of Wagner ware Int. Great cookware, very even heating. That said I also own many pieces of Revere ware copper clad stainless steel cookware and the stuff is fantastic. The cookware isn't nearly as important as the person using it. There are proper techniques for using different types of cookware, master those techniques and stainless or aluminum it doesn't really matter that much.
