Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. These are a very nice pair of Japanese WWII Non-Commissioned Officer's (NCO) Type 93 binocular field glasses. Known in Japanese as the 93式双眼鏡 (93-Shiki sōgankyō), these were intended as a smaller more portable version of binocular field glasses that could be used by NCO's in the field. Lightweight and small, they were well designed for their task.
Field glasses have no internal prisms that can be knocked out of alignment so their main advantage is that they are durable, making them a good choice for file combat operations. These binoculars measure 3.5” L x 5” W and are marked with a magnification factor of 4x10°. The binoculars are in good shape, with both lenses clear.
The included canvas case is in good shape, and was originally tan canvas, and painted a darker beige color for water resistance in the jungle environment. The original carry strap is present and functional with the rest of the leather components present.
A great Japanese binocular set from WWII, ready to display!
