Best Water Canteens for Hiking, Camping & Bushcraft

Urban Knife Guy shares a variety of water canteens for hiking, camping, and bushcraft.

To give a bit of context, UKG considers the water canteen the primary water bottle that you would carry. You might have other containers if you need to carry more water. But you need at least one main container.

UKG does not consider this sort of water bottle a proper canteen for a hike, camp, or if you go outdoors to practice bushcraft. The canteen should be on you at all times and the most logical way to carry it is on your belt.

I have similar systems then I found the Heavy Cover canteen with cup and lid in a Centerline System Mother canteen carrier and never looked back. Cool vid!

I am using US Army canteens (1qt and 2qt) and hydration bladder. If I am on the bicycle roadtrip, I have sport canteen and US Army 2qt.

Not a canteen but I really like the 1, 9 lts water bottle from pathfinder.

Do you have a link for where you got the black canteen?

I use two millitary grade systems, one a copy of usa type made by gotland in sweden stainless steel.

The other uk and nato bcb crhsader 2 system some is stainless steel and some is plastic

Maybe the canteens would fit in their cases better if you put them in the right direction

Hi I use the Pathfinder Canteen Cooking Kit. After 5 years of use, not a bit of rust. I bought a plastic bottle like yours, the cap broke. The taste of plastic and the smell of plastic was disgusting. The Chinese Stainless steel canteen bottle, there was rust after a year. Never again Chinese companies. I don't remove my canteen from the pouch, I drink it straight from the pouch. I carry my Canteen kit on a shoulder strap. BTW. the inward curve of the canteen goes on the hip.. I just bought a Ti canteen bottle but it's not for me. The Pathfinder Canteen kit is my "never-leave-home-without-it" together with my Jääkäripuukko 110 knife. Just sharing. Thanks.

Use a grinder and take the metal lip off the container it you can.
