                  He died last year, can't remember what it was though? Think it was cancer!

                      Learning experience.

                      I aquired one of my learning experiences from this dealer. ( Not blade related).
                      Several years ago I bought from him what was described as a set of Luftwaffe binoculars in a powder blue case.

                      The set turned out to be a civilian set of Schultz ( Kassel) 8x56 a non military supplier in WW2 and the set a definate civilian model - optically "so so" and substandard when compared to Dienstglas - not aware of this at the time - found it out several months later.
                      The powder blue case turned out to be for a set of Japanese naval binoculars .
                      I still have the Schultz set which I passed on to a nephew , the "powder blue" case has now been matched to a Japanese navy 7x50.
                      As ever its a case of buyer beware and knowing what to avoid, price , you guessed it a bout 60% too much for the set.
                      Lesson learned and not repeated.
