The Night of the Flask
By Alan E. Schmidt
My new 6oz stainless steel flask (set of 5) arrived last week. The only true way to test flasks is… yes… you guessed it… fill these bad boys up and pound down some liquor like it owes you money.
Got my friends together (set of 4) and filled each flask with 100 proof rum. Yeah, play time is over, this test will not be for the faint of heart. Amateurs need not apply. Allow me to introduce the 5 players in this test. I will use descriptive nicknames to avoid damaging fragile friendships.

#1 – The cry baby – He drinks and feels sorry for himself. Almost to the point where you want to cry with him… almost.
#2 – The fighter – He drinks and wants to fight everyone. With no takers, he generally ends up punching a wall at the end of the night to prove his manhood.
#3 – The sleeper – Generally this individual needs to be carried to the car at the end of the night. Mumbles a lot.
#4 – The daredevil – The more liquor in him the more he thinks that jumping off the roof with a table cloth parachute is a really good idea. ANYTHING is possible with the proper Liquor / enthusiasm ratio.
#5 – Me – Normal – I console the cryer, Calm down the fighter, control the daredevil, and carry the sleeper to the car.

We assembled at my house. Thus ensuring there would be no drinking and driving. The test began very positive. 40 minutes in we had to refill the flasks. We looked and felt soooo cool using our flasks. Sophisticated. The sophistication ended at approx. 1 hr. and 15 minutes.

Cry baby started with the whole woe is me and look at my pathetic life rhetoric. The tears began to flow. The fighter punched him in the face in order to, in his own words, give him something to cry about. Daredevil decided that jumping off my back wall onto the trampoline would get some, quote, “big air”. He bounced into the side of the house like a slab of beef. I laughed and was promptly beaned in the face from his half full flask. He throws harder than I thought.
I released a few obsenities at the top of my lungs and then swung into action. I did not want to be left out of the “Hey look at me” escapades. I kicked a dozing sleeper out of his chair and then pointed at the daredevil. Sleeper went after him immediately.
Crier and fighter wrestling on the ground. Sleeper and daredevil yelling at each other. Me, standing there proudly, with a very large flask induced bruise on the side of my face…. now swollen.

Apparently the neighbors were concerned and called the police. All fun ended when they arrived at 1 hr 20 minutes into flask test. Unfortunately, fighter answered the door. He got one drunk wild swing in before the beating began. I found myself cheering him on. It did not help him in his efforts to defeat multiple police officers. At least he got his own police car, the rest of us were doubled up. I rode with crier. A good thing. The other car went to the hospital first. The police officers had bet daredevil he couldn’t fit his whole fist into his mouth. he knocked out two teeth forcing that sucker in.
All the flasks were retrieved with our personal effects the next day…. after arraingment.
They still looked new!!! Awesome flasks. Took a beating and still looked new.
We were all pleased with the results and are planning to test these wonderful flasks again, soon. Hopefully at someone’s house that does not have a trampoline.

These flasks make a great gift!!
By MCMB
We purchased these flasks as a part of our groomsmen gift and they were just perfect! The quality is fine, I did notice that the cap doesn’t screw on as easily as a flask of a higher quality, but it’s really not a huge problem. The design is nice and simple and they look very cool engraved.

Great way to enhance a wedding!
By Matt J. Rose
My friend and his girlfriend finally decided to take the plunge into marriage last weekend, I was asked to stand up and accepted of course. I decided the day before the big event I wanted a flask to keep in my tux. I didn’t want anything to fancy since I wasn’t sure how much Id use it after the vows were read.

I searched some local stores here in town and found about 20-40 bucks for a single decent flask. I decided to check Amazon and was happy to find this 5 pack of stainless steel flasks for about 25 bucks. I decided to order them and opted for the overnight shipping.

They arrived the day of the wedding, so I tore them out of the packaging to make sure they would work. I was really happy with the build quality of this item, nice brushed stainless exterior and a “cap flap” I washed them all out and got ready for the wedding. I handed them out to the guys that enjoy cocktails, feeling the beer drinkers wouldn’t benefit from a flask.

Everybody enjoyed them (maybe a bit to much) and I didn’t hear one complaint about leaking or issues. My buddy did tell me the next day his cap holder had a small crack in it…but we couldn’t determine if it was post or pre wedding, and it didn’t effect the product at all so I don’t think its a deal breaker. Even if used for a one time event this flasks are well worth the money and are the perfect size for the inside of a tux or suit. Give them a try you’ll be happy you did…really really happy after using it a few times!
