Historical note: As far as I can tell, the original design of the classic kidney shaped mess kit started with the German - Kochgeschirr M1887, designed in the late 19th and introduced on the German Empire Army.
This was and still is a brilliant piece of industrial design: It's functional and durable, it's long-lived and easy to use and maintain. So successful was the design that it
was copied by all major manufacturers for most armies.
Subsequent variants were used throughout both world wars, to the present day. By the 1920s and 1930s many nations had transitioned to aluminum as the material of choice.
Aluminum was lightweight, cheap, easy to fabricate and corrosion-resistant. On the minus side, it can be dented quite easily. During World War II, wartime shortages of aluminum caused some nations to temporarily revert to tinned or
enameled steel construction. With few exceptions, after the war, most armies settled on aluminum mess tins.Wolf Bushcraft Mess Tin Holder since July 2018
