This high quality magnifying lens makes a great addition to your Bushcraft kit or survival/emergency preparedness bag. Its 8x magnification comes in handy for plant identification, map reading, scat inspection and picking slivers from your fingers:/. It also can serve double duty as as a fire-starting tool that can be utilized under sunny conditions. The super high quality BK9 optical glass lens is 2" in diameter and comes with custom genuine leather carry pouch to protect it from scratches or chips while in your pocket or packed up with your gear. 

To use as a firestarting tool, the lens can concentrate the suns rays and produce intense heat which can ignite an ember on charcloth or dry tinder within seconds. This is a great emergency and survival tool that everyone should know how to use. The process takes a little practice at first, but once you understand the concept, it works like a charm. 

Fun fact: The Olympic torch that is carried around the host country of the Olympic Games is lit by a burning glass similar to this, at the site of ancient Olympia in Greece.
