Nope - it's Swiss.. a genuine Borde Bombe. This wee beastie:



It's the only white gas stove that weighs only a little bit more than my snow peak plus a cartridge. and the fuel reservoir very conviently starting with about a half cup of water in my platy into that pot you saw in the last picture, will melt enough snow to fill my 2 litre platy, and then the pot again to boil for tea and dinner.. smile

It's drawbacks are I know it's not *that* durable so I baby it (it's unobtainium for the most part) compared to say, a whisperloud or svea.. It's sort of my preferred solo winter jobby.. but if I expect to be out a long time or with two people I take the svea.. If I'm going to be melting snow for three or more (small scale industrial conversion of white gas to liquid water) then the whisperloud comes out of the depths.. the stove weight starts to pale when compared to the litres of white gas that start to be carried for that wink
