Mavens line of Custom binoculars, their B series are some of the best MIJ binoculars you can now buy. My experience has only been in the B3 6x30 and now the B3 10x30. Many here have high praise for their larger B series. As far as your question of me comparing these to any similar 10x32mm... -

Hi T. ... Since Maven became a talking point here there has been mostly positive remarks from owners on this forum. A few here have strongly expressed having a bad experience and would not recommend them. I held off for along time before I decided to purchase my pair of Customized 6x30... -

The comments regarding Mavens use of Dark Kryptek (my choice) was never interpreted by me to be any criticism. These types of discussions :t: are the reason I read and participate here on this forum. -

I did not see that pattern as a type animal, but more reptile snake like. Animal skins/furs repel me for obvious reasons. If I do order another pair, I would use the same armor pattern with the gun gray highlights with the black Maven labeling. It would be another 6x30. If they made the 7x28... -

Reading the opinions of Mavens overall quality here and on the internet has been overwhelming positive from the majority of wildlife observers and birders. The 6x30 is my first exposure to their brand. Based on what I have read and experienced, I have no doubt that their 7x28 series would... -

Over the many years that I have handled optics, I have read just as many different opinions on any one binocular brand regarding everything from their build quality to how they perform optically to if their cost justifies their performance. Regarding the performance of these to my eyes both... -

Yes , I chose this armor design over their standard black or gray. I added the red highlights to go with the Maven M label. I wanted a look that looked Custom, not the standard boring Binocular look. Maven offers a unique product regarding their quality with options to match. I wanted the pair I... -

Took the leap during the beginning of the pandemic. Had to wait due to the shutdown, the plus side it was also at a time of Maven’s sale markdowns saving me over $100 off this custom build 6x30.
