GERMAN OD PLASTIC CANTEEN W/CUP USED

The German OD Plastic Canteen with Cup is genuine Bundeswehr-issue field hydration kit, pulled from military stores and ready for a second life with your customers. Built around a sturdy plastic flask, a ribbed aluminum cup, and a folding handle, it's the same drinking and cooking set German soldiers have carried in the field for decades — not a copy, the real thing.

This is a strong everyday seller for shops serving campers, hikers, bushcrafters, preppers, reenactors, and military surplus collectors. The flask handles drinking water on the trail, while the metal cup nests neatly underneath and doubles as a small cooking pot or mug over a camp stove or open flame. The complete unit clips together as one compact package that drops into a pack, hangs off a belt, or rides on a Y-strap harness.

Authentic German Military Issue

As genuine surplus, each set carries the honest character of field service — expect scuffs, scratches, faded paintwork, and patina on the metal hardware and leather. Markings, manufacturer stamps, and issue dates vary from piece to piece, which is part of the appeal for collectors and reenactors looking for the real article rather than a modern remake.

What's Included

• OD brown plastic canteen flask with threaded screw cap and retention loop
• Olive drab aluminum cup with folding wire handle, sized to cradle the base of the flask
• Carrier assembly with canvas web strap, leather belt loop, and metal hook hardware for belt or harness carry

Key Features

• Genuine Bundeswehr surplus — original-issue gear, not a copy
• Two-piece field system — drink from the flask, cook or brew in the cup
• Ribbed metal cup with folding handle for fire and stove use
• Integrated carrier with canvas strap and leather belt fitting
• Compact, nested design that rides flat on the belt or in a pack

Condition

Used military surplus. Each piece has seen issue and will show honest wear — scratches, scuffs, paint loss, patina on hardware, and aging on leather and webbing components. Functionally sound and ready for outdoor use, with the authentic field-worn look collectors and reenactors want.

Who It Sells To

A reliable cross-category item for outdoor, surplus, and tactical retailers. Appeals to hikers and campers building out a no-nonsense mess kit, preppers stocking dependable hydration gear, reenactors and collectors after authentic Bundeswehr kit, and budget-minded outdoorsmen who want field-proven equipment without paying for new-production prices.
