    Just because ONE wears a kilt does not mean ONE has a descerning taste in a particular intoxicating beverage. I myself have often gotten looped on Southern Comfort not including that time I hung from a chainlink fence jetpuking because my legs failed to function! Luckily I don't drink battery acid because what burns going down burns coming up. I actually carry mouth wash in my flask, you know it case a girl accidently mistakes me for this my arhnemisis (pictured below) and starts talking to me.



    Here is my belt buckle flask, $10 ebay. Flask just pops out and holds an incredible 2 fl. oz. Lower jaw creates drinking cup.

    2 oz? The whisky I drink is so strong I lose more than that to evaporation every time I uncork it! I've never heard the expression "jetpuking" before, in my University days we preferred "the technicolor yawn" or "calling Ralph on the porcelain telephone." Besides, Grant, I took you for a "Yukon Jack" man.

    Best regards,

    Apparently I was going for distance . I've not drunk rye since I was 16 or 17, seems we ran out of a proper mix and had to resort to using Tang (crystal form). If it was good enough for the Astronauts...

    I actually got my flask -- and ones for some relatives -- from Excalibur gifts, and I was extremely pleased with it/them. 6oz, I think, and since I don't chug my Oban from it, that seems to be a nice quantity. My main concern was that I wanted something a bit flat, and still round -- most that I've seen were too deep/thick, and take up a lot of space in the sporran. So I got this one:

    6 oz. Oval Liquor Flask
    http://www.excaliburcutlery.com/flas...t_detail&p=368

    And, for the record, they were phenomenal folks to deal with -- I ordered them and needed to get them in 3-4 days for a wedding -- I paid for 2nd day shipping, and they had it out the door within 24 hours, and everything was perfect. It's not rocket science, but still, I enjoy every positive customer-service experience!

    I'm gonna keep an eye out for one like McFarkus got -- that looks quite nice too!

    Cheers all!
