Description

We’re American craftsmen making innovative, battle-proven optics for the world’s most relentless hunters and shooters. We’ve built our reputation as the world’s dominant optics manufacturer focusing on performance. We are hard-working Americans committed to upholding the legacy of quality and craftsmanship that is expected of true American Manufacturing. We believe in outperforming everyone, even ourselves, and we are relentless in our pursuit. Built for epic adventures in harsh environments, the BX-5 Santiam HD 10x42mm binocular dominates other optics in its class. It's the perfect glass for anyone who demands professional-grade performance. The 10x42mm provides enough field of view for tight areas, while delivering enough magnification for wide-open spaces. If a 10x binocular is the perfect power for you, but you prefer a little more light, the BX-5 Santiam HD 10x50mm is your choice. With a slightly larger objective, the 10x50mm provides enough field of view for tight areas, while delivering great magnification for wide-open spaces and a bright image. We make sure our optics perform at the highest level in the harshest conditions by ensuring they will survive from -40 degrees Fahrenheit all the way up to 160 degrees Fahrenheit. From torrential downpours to crossing rivers, you’ll never have to worry about a Leupold binocular leaking or fogging up. Our proprietary gas blend and seals are tested to a 33-foot depth and a multitude of pressure changes. Offers unmatched light transmission that’s designed to outperform in the most challenging conditions, industry-leading glare reduction for a clear image in direct, harsh light, and the resolution and clarity that professional guides and shooters demand. Whether you’re going after your target buck or the top spot on the podium, you know our optics will never let you down. That level of trust is earned. It’s won by dominating thousands of hard hunts, winning countless adrenaline-filled matches, and protecting our country for decades on the battlefield. No matter what happens to you when the pressure’s on, our designs will survive every epic moment and deliver the premium clarity they’re known for, just as they have for the past 100 years. So go ahead, Be Relentless.

Good quality

Good quality, sharp and well balanced.

Top Notch Binoculars and Superior Optics at an Affordable Price
Style: 10x42mm (174483)
After comparing the BX-5 Santiam HD 8X42 with the BX-5 Santiam HD 10X42, I decided to go with the latter because of its higher magnification and superior optical crispness overall. Also, by comparison, the diopler wheel on the 8X42 was too stiff; it was almost impossible to adjust. I noticed too, the accompanying snap fittings on the neck strap on both models—that others have also complained about—may be prone to fail, so one should be sure to purchase the more robust and comfortable shoulder harness accessory Leupold sells. As for the carrying case, it is what it is, maybe a slight bit too small but hopefully functional in the field. ... show more

Just buy it.
Style: 10x42mm (174483)
After considering purchasing a good pair of binoculars, and spending a considerable amount of time reviewing the wide variety of options in the price range, I decided to purchase the BX-5. I am very pleased with the clarity, weight and performance of these binoculars. Leopold makes great products!

Good image
Style: 10x42mm (174483)
Great image when you have the focus just right. Unfortunately it seems like I do have to use the center focus much more frequently than my older, cheaper binoculars.

Awesome glass. Got these for about half price from warehouse. They were just as advertised. Packaging was a little used but binocs were perfect.

To often having to adjust focus knob and eye cups aren’t as comfortable as Swarovski binoculars.

Can’t go wrong with Leupold
Style: 10x42mm (174483)
I bought a pair of Gold Ring 10X42 Leupolds many years ago. The hinge malfunctioned so I sent the in for repair as Leupold offers a lifetime warranty. Leupold didnt repair the binoculars I sent in…. To my surprise they sent me a brand new pair of these 10 X42 BK-5s! You can’t gps wrong with Leupold. I have 3 Gold Ring rifle scopes and their Gold ring spotting scope. They have never let me down. Top quality optics in every respect. I’ve taken them on a moose hunt in British Columbia, a caribou Hunt in Manitoba, and on countless hunts here in Montana. ... show more
