Seriously, on the plane. But it's glass & filled with about two gallons of vodka. Now *this* will be quite the conversation piece!

    That is pretty funny.I had one of them about 2 years ago,drank up all the 'WODKA' but saves the bottle.There is an importer here in the US where you can get them from,I can't remember the name though.As for the vodka,it is a little stronger than I'll bet you are used to,if you don't like the vodka it makes a good paint stripper.Remember,the first drink out of the bottle should be straight up

    Josey, I get real vodka from time to time courtesy of my brother-in-law. Very different than that which you can buy in the States. Some special bottlings, similar in quality to the better single malts.

    You'll have to post a JPEG of that one. I'd like to see it. Gives whole new meaning to the phrase "straight shot."

    I managed to have a few Russian roommates in my third year of college. They brought back excellent vodka and cognac.

    offeror, I will try. But I don't have a digital and this is a full size replica! A little large for the scanner bed . It even comes in a case approved by Mikhail himself. Perhaps I will have a presentation case to sell Evil after the vodka is gone. I sure hope they can get it through Customs . . . especially considering what they paid for it.

    Offer,here is a pic that came with the packaging on the bottle I had

    There is also a bottle of Kalashnikov vodka that isn't as expensive as the AK-bottle (If you just want the vodka)

    It is a neat bottle to have but a little pricey,in late'99/early '00 I think I paid $160 for a bottle.They do have an importer here in the states,I just cant remember for the life of me,it'll come,eventualy.
