Utensil set/roll?

[trailscape]

I was eyeballing a utensil set today and then spotted a very similar one on Amazon. Can anyone tell me if the cheaper is just a bad copy or if it's the same version? It's hard to see much of a difference. Anyone have experience with either of these? Hoping there's a durable storage bag in there somewhere.

Greensport: Sold by Sierra Expeditionsand Front Runner. About $60.


Chef's Planet: About $30.

Well I think I will have to order the Amazon one and check it out at that price.

FWIW, I think most of us have better utensils already (or aspire to) and just want a way to hang them handily by our kitchens.
I have one of these from Boundary Waters

Mesh Utensil Roll

Very nice. I've looked at the others above found via Google searches too, but your link to Cooke shows a rather nice and well priced setup.

Something similar, from a great company, that is made of a strong mesh fabric and allows for quick drying of washed utensils too.

I've got their small dishnet which attaches to my kitchen table for drying the dishes. It rocks!

Exact same one that I posted; same price too...

I've been using it for almost 3 years. Very convenient. I set two screws alongside my stove and just hang it from them as I cook.

Interested to hear your take on this set before I order one myself. Thanks.

I really like the SolGear stuff. They have a larger unit for big groups and I was impressed with the quality.

Try the Bucket Boss brand. I re-purposed their tool roll for knives and other utensils. Home Depot carries them otherwise here's the amazon link. http://www.amazon.com/Bucket-Boss-Brand-07004-Duckwear/dp/B00004T82P

I a little confused. Why is this the best way to carry oddly shaped items that you dont want exposed to weather or dropped on the ground?

It seems to me that rolling them up in a cloth produces a lumpy, oddly shaped item that packs poorly. The silly pockets they slide into wont prevent them from dropping out when handling. If left outside on a picnic table in a rain they all get wet. I've used tool rolls and, while they work, you always have to use care taking things out and putting them back, adjusting all the others that half slid out during handling, and be careful when rolling it up that things dont fall out the ends.

Why would a plastic, tupperware-style, box not be better? (except that you cant find one the right size/shape)

Tupperware would work fine for some people, for sure. Not me though; I unroll mine and hang it from my stove. My utensils are an easy grab away while I cook.
A Tupperware container would need a flat surface to sit on.

As for storage, I roll it up and toss it between two ammo cans under the stove ---- canned food and granola bars live in the ammo boxes.

The tool roll is simple and effective. But it's not the best idea for everybody...

The Tupperware works, but kitchen knives bouncing around in bulk with the other utensils get dull quickly. The roll separates them and they stay sharp.
