A tea kettle is one of those simple objects that’s easy to take for granted.

The Ghillie Kettle lets you boil water in under five minutes using sticks and other solid combustibles. The fire is sheltered at the base of its hollow body, while the heat spreads quickly to the outer chamber. Available in polished or anodized aluminum.

It kind of looks like a dismantled torpedo, but it’s actually a kettle that brings liquids to a boil by converting solar energy into heat. It takes about 2 hours to bring 17oz to a boil. A little long but much welcomed when out in the rough.
