15 Handheld Brass Telescope with Wooden Box: Nautical Pirate Scope Reviews -
This handle of this high quality 15" brass telescope is wrapped with leather and will magnify far away objects and landscapes with a clear image. The scope extends to a full 15" and then can retract to fit into its own ornate wooden box.
Galileo is credited with inventing the first refracting telescope. Through his understanding of how light passes through a lens, he was able to construct a device that focused on an image and enabled the user to see an object as though it were brighter, clearer or closer.
The magnification of this brass telescope is 12x.

This review is from : 15" Handheld Brass Telescope with Wooden Box: Nautical Pirate Scope
Good for finding mermaids! . I just got me telescope and it is really nice. The brass gleams, the leather is REAL, the wooden box is high quality.
They shipped it immediately and it arrived in perfect condition. I bought it as a sorta salty accessory on me desktop, but this morning at daybreak i went out to the bay and spotted me first lovely lonely mermaid on the rocks some distance away. I was able to observe her unnoticed and the telescope was strong enough for me to see the scales on her tail.
Highly recommended.
ps.
the telescope works by pulling in or pushing out the tubes until if focuses. If you are interested in top quality optics in order to, say, watch an eagle snag a salmon, this is not the right telescope for you ... but if you want to snag approving looks directed toward you that say "what a cut of the canvas that old salt makes", (or something like that) and still get a reasonably close up and clear view of the things you seek then you will be a happy sailor with this spyglass.

15" Handheld Brass Telescope with Wooden Box: Nautical Pirate Scope Reviews
broken box difficult to use . Santa brought this toy for my daughter for Christmas. The box completely fell apart and is beyond repair as the hinges broke. The telescope is difficult to focus and is very poor quality. Would not recommend this as a toy for any child.

15" Handheld Brass Telescope with Wooden Box: Nautical Pirate Scope Opinions
Hmmm. . Well, it looks cool, but it is poorly made. The brown part of the scope is cheap imitation leather covered plastic, which has filled the inside with dust and plastic shavings. The brass part is loose where the second and third section come together, so it wobbles when you hold it extended, and finally the focus is off, so you have to partially collapse it to focus. I wish I hadn't wasted thirty dollars on this. It might be worth $5 - with the box, certainly not what I paid. Won't order from this company again.

Cons Review
unhappy . The telescope had a major scratch on the lens we had to send it back waiting on refund grandchild didnot get it for Christmas wish they had been inspected before being shipped out
Brass Telescope . Bought this for my 4 yr old great nephew as his "Santa" gift. He was absolutely thrilled with it-and so were we! It is well made and will last him a long time.
Amazing quality for the price . When my 9 year old son opened this gift, I thought he was going to burst. It is by far his favorite gift. He carries it around with him wherever he goes. The brass telescope is heavy and focuses by adjusting the length of the extension slightly. The handle is wrapped in leather, which is hand-sewn together at the seam. The box that it came in is excellent quality as well--nicely finished with smooth seams. I find this gift to be a steal for the quality. If you are looking for a gift with an authentic, antique, pirate feel with high quality of craftsmanship, this is the gift to get.
Mom found the "pirate telescope" he wanted... . Our son has recently become obsessed with pirates and had requested a "telescope" for Christmas. Upon further digging, we realized he wanted a "pirate telescope", not one for looking at the stars. Well...sounds easy enough, but hard to find in all actuality. Found this on Amazon on Friday, ordered it and it arrived today (Monday). Crazy fast shipping. Came packaged well, one part of the wooden box had come off, but with some wood glue it's back to working order. This thing is worth the money, it actually works, the box is very neat, it looks like a real pirate telescope. He will be thrilled!
