The 16-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
Product Description
Bring back the golden age of the martini with this swanky bullet cocktail shaker. Featuring an award-winning Art Deco design from the 1930's, the 4-pc. shaker is great for mixing a variety of classic drinks like Cosmopolitans or Bloody Marys, and new-fangled ones, too. Exquisitely cast in 18/8 stainless steel, the device breaks down into 4 pieces, including a handy shot measure and strainer. Holds 16 oz. Imported.

 Shaken, not stirred January 28, 2008

I'm tired of cocktail shakers that leak. The Metrokane showed up in a couple reviews as non-leaky, so I gave it a try.
Verdict? Well, it's pretty good about not leaking, but this is not a five-star shaker. The big problem is that when you put the top on so you can give your ingredients a shake, even the lightest touch causes the thing to grip down so tightly that it's nearly impossible to remove. I guess that tight grip is what fights leakage.
To the cocktail shaker makers of the world: when you want a leak-proof seal, try using a rubber gasket. It's not really a revolutionary idea. Give me a lid that screws down onto a rubber gasket and I'll be happy. Until then, I limp along with just-okay products like this one.
Of course, the art deco styling makes my kitchen counter look very au courant.

This shaker is okay... it looks great, thats for sure... Unfortunately if you shake it hard the "strainer" piece starts moving from the main piece and if your not careful they'll come apart and make a big mess...
5-stars for looks
2- starts for functionality

Anyone who loves "shaken but not stirred" drinks has felt the frustrations of finding a good cocktail shaker. I've always wondered why manufactures even bothered making shakers. As all they do, is shake the drink all over the bar tender & then spill all over the counter! Well your troubles are OVER. Buy this shaker, you won't be sorry. I had serious doubts, but I did my research and this was "the one to buy"... it turns out "they" were right! Order this shaker with confidence my "shaken but not stirred" friends. You won't be sorry.
