I'm a big fan of the single wall stuff. It works pretty well for water carrying at least. For hot and cold stuff you could always add a cozy. Certainly not as effective but no lead!

On the other hand, I dream of the day when I make my own wax lined leather bottle like the days of old

It seems to be about the lead welding they use to bind the parts together. So as long as it's a single piece of metal with no joints, I guess it'd be fine. I just want a water carrier, doesn't need to keep things hot or cold. I'm becoming jaded with hearing about how all my very basic household items are actually killing me.
