Hand Lens - Folding Pocket Magnifier
Geologists working in the field or in a lab often need to closely examine rocks, sediments, soils and other fine-grained materials. A hand lens provides a quick and easy way to perform that work. Many field geologists use a hand lens so frequently that they wear it on a lanyard or cord around their neck and tuck the lens into their button-down shirt pocket when not in use. The rock hammer, hand lens, topographic map and field notebook are the most basic tools of a field geologist.
This handlens is a 10x pocket magnifier with a durable metal case. When not in use the lens folds into a protected position. This protects the lense from breakage and scratches. It has a metal loop for attaching a lanyard or you can thread a cord through the case below the pivot hinge and tie a loop.
