Introducing the SilverFire Survivor Rocket Stove

This stove is beautifully constructed of Stainless steel both inside and outside, and balanced with black accents including cast iron top and bottom.

This top-of-the-line natural draft rocket stove is the first to use both primary and secondary air in the combustion process for tremendously clean burning and smoke free operation.

It is significantly lighter than similar stoves. The heavy and fragile ceramic lining found in other stoves has been rejected in this design. The light weight insulation used in this stove results in a 50% weight reduction over the competitors' offerings.

The black stainless steel door retains and directs more heat into the combustion chamber for a hotter fire. This results in greater efficiency and lower emissions, in addition to improved safety and control of embers. This door design insures excellent cooking control for both high and low power cooking (operate with door in the down position).

Compact Butane Camp Stove

This stove uses a very common Butane fuel with a Bayonet style supply valve. This fuel is often found in the camping section of department stores, but is also found in the garden or barbecue section. It can also be found at all asian markets, and restaurant supply stores and is often used by food caterers for larger portable gas stoves. This fuel is typically 1/2 the cost of the screw type Butane fuel canisters required by many stoves.

The legs fold to the center of the bottom, and the pot supports swing around the center making this much more compact then you think. This model has electronic ignition so no lighter is needed. Just turn on the gas, and press the button (light a cigarette lighter).

Kelly Kettle and Accessories

The Kelly Kettle®

Kelly Kettles make boiling water fast and easy. Using only naturally occurring fuels such as sticks, Pine cones, Birch bark, dry grass, etc. these portable outdoor camping kettles boil water in just 3 - 5 minutes for tea, coffee, rehydrating food, bathing, cooking, etc. With the addition of simple to use and inexpensive accessories, exhaust heat can be used to cook with as well!

• Boil water & cook at the same time (if optional accessories are also purchased)!
• NO Batteries, NO Gas - FREE FUEL!  Works with any fuel including: sticks, dry grass, bark, pine cones, even dry animal dung!
• Lightweight, compact, durable & works in extreme weather.
• Great for Camping, Picnics, Scouts, Fishing, etc.

How the Kelly Kettle® works:

The Kelly Kettle® (aka Volcano Kettle®) will boil water in 3 to 5 minutes depending on the fuel you're using. Made from Aluminum or Stainless Steel, it is essentially a double walled chimney with the water contained in the chimney wall. (We currently only offer the more durable Stainless Steel models)

Once the kettle is filled with water, simply start a very small fire in the base, set the kettle on the base and drop additional fuel (twigs, leaves, grass, paper, etc.) down the chimney. The large internal surface area of the chimney heats the water very quickly. When the water boils, hold the Handle at an angle of 90° to the Kettle - then lift the Kettle clear of the base. To pour, lift it by the handle and tilt it using the cork chain.

If additional water is required, simply refill the kettle with water and place it back on the base when the fire is still burning. Refill the chimney with fuel and you can look forward to a second kettle full of boiling water within a matter of minutes. Kelly Kettles work in even the most extreme weather conditions - in fact, they work even better in wind.

Watch the Kelly Kettle in operation on YouTube!

Although it is called a Kettle, the Kelly Kettle is more than just a water boiling device. We offer several accessories that allow the user to harness exhaust heat from the kettle to cook food with. A cross style pan support is available that sits in the chimney on top of the kettle, or to cook faster, you can remove the main kettle body and place a two half circle grill sections into the top of the bowl and place a pan directly on top of the fire.

Stainless Steel Military Style Field Mess Kits (Reproduction)

These Stainless steel mess kits have been the mainstay of the US military for over 50 years and have been nearly impossible to find for several years, in any condition!

We now have a source for brand new, high quality Mess Kit Reproductions.

The kit consists of 2 pieces. First, there is an 8" x  6 1/2" x 1 1/2" main cooking pan with an 8" fold down handle.  The handle folds down and securely locks over the second piece. The second piece serves two functions. Not only is it a lid that the folding handle fits over, but it also functions as a divided serving dish. When the lid is installed, there is ample space inside for a cutlery set,  can opener and other items.

When you open the fork and the spoon, the center of the unit unlocks and separates into two tools: One has a fork, bottle and can opener, and a cork screw. The other half has a knife, spoon and a punch.

Another great feature is that the knife is on the side that has the spoon. So, you can actually use a fork and knife at the same time with two hands! Good idea.

• The body is brushed stainless, and the utensils are gloss stainless.
• Comes complete with nylon belt pouch too!

Super Turbo Mini Can Opener

After going through a hurricane (Iniki in 1992), we discovered how important a can opener really is! The day after the disaster, a few stores opened up (among the rubble) to supply residents with necessities including canned goods. The problem was that you couldn't find a can opener if your life depended on it (and in some cases, it did).

Sold in two packs! Put one in your back pack, and the other in your automobile glove compartment.

This newly designed Aquamira Water Bottle is ergonomically shaped to fit comfortably in your hand, in standard cup holders, or bicycle cages.  The additional "Finger-Grip" carry loop allows you to carry the bottle with one finger, or secure it to backpacks.  Constructed of BPA free LDPE plastic, the Aquamira water bottle is easy to squeeze, when higher flow rates are desired. The patented Bite-Me valve provides high flow rates, leak-free shut-off and will not pinch your tongue.

With a 100 gallon capacity, the new Aquamira Filter Capsule boasts several improvements over the "Drop-In" filter design. The capsule is easy to install, ultrasonically sealed, and interfaces directly with the Bite-Me valve, making a seal between the cap and filter unnecessary.  Venting is independent of the filter, eliminating any chance of cross contamination. Since the filter draws from the bottom of the bottle, there is no need to tip the bottle to drink.  Just bite and squeeze to enjoy fresh filtered water anytime.

Filter flow rate, throughput capacity, and strength testing is completed on every lot of filters prior to acceptance for production, and are traceable using the lot code imprinted on every filter. Replacement CR-100 filters are also available.

X-Pack Water Filter System

The X-Pack provides up to 55 liters (just over 14.5 gallons) of clean drinking water from nearly any surface water source over a ten-day period. Purity levels are comparable to reverse osmosis systems, and the filter meets EPA standards for the removal of biological pathogens (viruses, bacteria, cysts). This unit has been used by soldiers to drink the floodwaters in New Orleans. You can trust the X-Pack to provide safe and simple water filtration wherever you are.

How it works:

The X-Pack is simple enough for a child to use. Just put dirty water into the red port, and add one sports syrup charge into the green port. That's it. The water will be filtered by the advanced forward osmosis membrane as it is drawn into the X-Pack's inner chamber. When the process is complete, simply pour the clean drink out and restart the system. No purifying chemicals are required, nor is any power input needed other than the sports drink syrup charges that drive the filtration process by osmosis.

• The highest purity levels of any personal water filter
• Non-clogging filter means expanded water source options
• Dilute sports drink output enhances hydration and improves user performance

Sea-Pack Emergency Desalinator

The SeaPack emergency water desalinator makes a survival drink from any available water supply: salt water, brackish water, muddy water, or questionable fresh water for up to 10 days.

The key to SeaPack's reliability is its ease of operation: simply fill the filter's red port with dirty water and squirt one of the enclosed syrup bottles into the green port. The forward osmosis membrane filter does the work by attracting pure water molecules to the electrolytes in the syrup which then pass through the pores of the membrane. 97% of salts are rejected and mud and pathogens are also rejected to EPA standards. Since there is no pumping, the SeaPack won't clog and requires no energy to operate.

From salt water, the SeaPack will produce 1/2 liter (16 fl oz) of lifesaving drink in five hours from each syrup bottle. The filtered drink is high in sugars to help provide the calories needed in a survival situation. This forward osmosis technology is trusted and used by boaters, aviators, and U.S. military personnel, and has been used around the world.
