This 10x-20x dual sided magnifying loupe is wonderful for examining pen parts and nibs. The lenses are 10x18mm and 20x12mm in size. The sturdy metal construction allows you to use just your fore finger to hold it, which feels like a more natural hand position. Excellent optics allow for a close examination of everything from scratches and cracks to nibs. When done, simply fold the loupe back inside the housing to protect the lens. Comes with plastic carry case.
Very useful tool, not only for inspection of pens, but for difficult to discern details on other products and photographs. Appears to be well made and likely to last. Anderson Pens service was exceptional; product was well packaged and arrived within two days.
Nice, compact loupe that comes in a sturdy carrying case. I like it. I have another that's 30x, but sometimes that's a little strong for my very basic needs. This one works well.
