This one is brown/bronze. I don’t trust kerosene, my impression is that it will tend to clog the parts inside. I poured out all the fluid inside and am letting it air out, hopefully evaporate all the kerosene.
Would have been nice to find an old Svea stove, but I think the metal-hounds grab all those for the brass.
I only bought it out of nostalgia-- I had given away my original Peak One years ago (still better than MSR stoves in my opinion, which always spill fuel), I switched over to butane a few years ago, and was using homemade soda-can alcohol stoves too (on a long hike, if you end up re-supplying at a gas station, alcohol gas additives like Heet are always available.)
