About Blaser
Almost solely focused on the hunting market, Blaser is a German company run by hunters. The company was started by a man called Horst Blaser in 1957 and thus they have been producing high-quality rifles for hunting over 60 years ago.
Today they still operate out of their base in Allgäu, southern Germany, but now also have a base San Antonio, Texas and as well as rifles, they also develop, manufacture and market a wide range of hunting-related products including shotguns, ammunition, clothing, silencers, general accessories, riflescopes, red dot sights, and binoculars.
At the time of writing, there is only one series of Blaser binoculars. Called the Primus, it uses some of the very best optics and components and is thus aimed at the very top end of the market and those looking for an 'alpha' type instrument.
So whilst the companies target audience is obviously the uncompromising hunter who does not want to settle for anything but the best and Blaser binoculars are marketed as such, there really is no reason why they are not also perfectly suitable for a host of other outdoor activities.
For instance, I personally feel that the 8x42 Primus, with its fantastic quality optics and a wide view, also make it a cracking general use and birding binocular. Likewise, the 8x30 is ideal for any travel adventure and especially a safari.
Blaser's Range of Binoculars:
As I mentioned earlier, the Blaser Primus is aimed at the very top end of the market and as you will see below, these fantastic looking binoculars are made in Germany from the very best materials and optical components.
Blaser is pretty coy when it comes to supplying detailed information on their optics. This is interesting to me because this usually means that the company has something to hide. However in this instance, I do not feel this is the case, I just think that they feel that their market is not interested in many of the technical details... which I a sure is not correct!
Anyway below are the details as to why I have been able to find out and which I believe to be correct. If you notice anything that is missing on which you believe is incorrect, please do contact me.

Made in Germany, these Bresser binoculars are obviously not cheap, but in comparison to many other alpha level binoculars from more well known Europen brands, they are very competitive:
