The most popular, most sold bag on the market. Thousands sold worldwide over many years.
No bells, no whistles , no gadgets to upsell. Just a bag.
Competitors have been known to copy my design specifics , size, material and thread usually after purchasing one from me so it goes to show how good they think of the product.
No matter how much you over engineer the design it is only cosmetic as at the end of the day you just screw it up and put it in a river :-)
I use recycled paper and biodegradable packing and shipping bags.
Please recycle where possible.
Thank you

Larger size approx 9.5" wide and 15.5" from top to the point. Larger than the original Millbank bag.
This " Millbank Bag" is a hand made copy of the original British Forces Millbank bag. This bag is brand new and made by a craftsman who
specialises in bushcraft products. Used for filtering water, prior to boiling or being treated , this bag successfully filters the detritus from
the water supply. Simply soak the bag and fill up to the top. Once it drains to the line you can then collect the water. This is the "Millbank
bag" we use on the courses when we demonstrate water purification.
The Millbank bag will only remove detritus from the water. It is not a purification device and only clears the water depending on the quality of
the water. So if your water is peaty it will not remove the colour. It is only to be used for removing bigger particles of detritus. It is
imperative that the water is either boiled or treated with a purification tablet prior to use. The use of untreated water is undertaken at your
own risk. Do not take this risk, light a fire and boil until a rolling boil. Don't spoil your days. If you are going to use a bag then don't skip
the purification step. Have fun and be safe.
I am often asked the volume of the bag. This is a bit irrelevant as all you do is top it up when it runs out and use again. The actual size is
approx 15" long by 9" wide. Made from unbleached artist cotton canvas.
Please be wary of Millbank bags offered for sale elsewhere as the British Army are very apt at adapt ion and they get used for filtering oil and
fluids from engines and can be contaminated. Be safe and sure and buy one of these.
I have sold thousands of these over the years and now after a break offering them again. Please check out my feed back as a seller.
I am asked why these are so much cheaper than you can buy online in specialist bushcraft / prepper/ survival shops. Well the answer is it's only a canvas bag and I cannot see how anyone can ask £25.00 plus for one!! I think the price I charge is fair for the time and materials plus free UK postage. I'm not into profiteering , I'm into my bushcraft.
Full instructions are on the bag.
The cost is for one bag only. International customers are welcome. In fact many sales have been to overseas.
