Nalgene vs Klean Kanteen demon, both fit a GSI Glacier Cup

Statistics & Notes-

Klean Kanteen SS 40oz. bottle holds 45oz. filled to the brim.
Nalgene/Guyot SS 38oz. bottle will hold 41oz. filled to the brim.

Klean Kanteen SS bottle weighs approx. 7oz.
Nalgene/Guyot SS bottle weighs just under 13oz.

(Guyot is pronounced ghee-oh.)

Both brands fit the 18oz. GSI Glacier cup as they share 3.5'' diameter bases on their respective wide-mouth bottles. Have not tested on the Oil Camp 16oz. cup that 'Ben's Backwoods' sells.

For boiling water directly on a fire the Nalgene/Guyot has a better weld and slightly thicker stainless steel; however, I chose the KK for the weight savings, the greater capacity and its current availability.

what do you think is better for a nalgene bottle.

the gsi glacier cup or the olicamp space saver cup

@Diegosurvivor I like the gsi because it's a little taller and holds a few more ounces. The oilcamp does have measurements markings on it however. Montbell also makes these cups in titanium but they will cost you. Cheers, Chris

@mostcanwait thank you very much, but which of them fits better at the bottom of the nalgene bottle

[mostcanwait]

@Diegosurvivor They are extremely close but the oilcamp fits perhaps just a tad tighter around the nalgene. The difference is barely noticeable.

good video! I was going to buy a SS Kleen kanteen 40 oz widemouth. I simply want to be able to use my msr water filter still and have it attach, as well as put my kanteen over the fire. I wasn't sure if my gsi cup would fit inside it. now i do. :)

i just saw that gsi is making a one liter stainless water bottle that should fit also. problem is that the threads on the bottle are plastic or rubber. so for bushcraft and using it in a fire is out.

come on gsi, rethink that and you have a market. leave it the way it is and you will sell less.

@mostcanwait thank you very much man, I apreciate your response

Thanks! Your vid is a godsend!  I've been searching high and low trying to find another SS bottle that will nest with the GSI (aside from the Nalgene). Well done!
