sandmanninja is coming for you with a badly rendered 3d knifesandmanninja is coming for you with a badly rendered 3d knifesandmanninja is coming for you with a badly rendered 3d knife
1) find some reference photos
2) study the shape to see how it could be easily made
3) make it

Go to google.com, click images, then type "gas bottle".
Make a folder (I usually make a "Ref Images" folder in my scenes folder under the project. So:
Scenes\Ref Images I usually make a folder for RENDERS and one for MAX FILES, but I'm a bit Obsessive Compulsive), and right-click and save the ref images in there.
A Gas Bottle (LP Gas?) is a cylinder and there is a cylinder primitive built into Max.
There is also a OilTank primitive under Extended Primitives that looks like a pill and can easily be the basis of your Gas Bottle.

Hope this helps.

You might also get some help if you post in the Newbie section.
