Wandering if anyone has done this.

I guess it depends on the border agent then... I don't doubt that many turn a blind eye to one jerry can, even though it's technically dutiable.
Many years ago, probably almost a decade ago, I didn't think anything of it and brought a jerry can across to fill it. Coming back, I actually declared I filled up the jerry can, and the border guard told me specifically that it was subject to duties, although he didn't charge me.
