Product Description

Amazon.com Review
The 28-ounce Metrokane Bullet cocktail shaker won't necessarily make people better bartenders, but it certainly helps them look the part. The art-deco-style Bullet is made of polished 18/8 stainless steel, with smooth lines and a gleaming surface that give any kitchen or den an air of sleek sophistication (think 007). Cocktail shakers work by reducing the alcohol's temperature in crushed ice without diluting the taste of the beverage. Bartenders merely pour their martinis, margaritas, or Manhattans out of the integral strainer and voila--an attractive, flavorful beverage that looks almost as good as the Bullet itself. The drip-free spout ensures a minimum of spilling, and the entire unit--which comes packaged in a clear gift box--is dishwasher-safe. --Rivers Janssen

5.0 out of 5 stars A better martini shaker, February 2, 2006

By	Philip T. Ganderton "gandini" (Albquerque, NM) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This shaker won Cook's Illustrated test of martini shakers late in 2005, just before the Christmas season. Branded as a Target shaker, it was out of stock before you could click "buy." I finally figured out it was the Metrokane Bullet and ordered it asap. It *does* live up to the hype, on one factor alone. It doesn't drip or spill when pouring. Yes, it's stainless steel, it's elegant (if not a little too phallic for some,) it's large enough to mix two *good sized* martinis, and...so what? Each of the other 5 cocktail shakers I've owned had these things going for them (but with more traditional tapered profiles.) But they all leaked when I removed the top/jigger measure from the body of the shaker. The Metrokane is one of the few shakers that has the lid fit inside the neck of the main shaker, so that it is easily removed to pour without any liquid loss or mess. All parts are well made and fit, but are easily detached for cleaning or refilling.
So long as the shape doesn't bother you, this is the best martini shaker no doubt. Cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars great shaker, February 25, 2003

By A Customer

this shaker works better than most as its top cover is set so that when you're done shaking all the liquid drains back into the shaker instead of that little bit the spills out like most shakers

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a keeper!, March 2, 2006

By	zrsdad - See all my reviews

This shaker is definately a keeper! Solid, sleek, and bigger than many at 28-ounces, I can mix for a group instead of individually.
