Swift 8X25 compact roof (1 Viewer)

I have an opportunity to pick up a pair of what may be a discontinued model of compact Swift binoculars. They are roof prism, 8X25, waterproof. Does anyone have information or an opinion on these as a back-up pair of bins?

Thanks in advance,
Earthinsong

Is it the TryLite TriLite or whatever?
 
Ahh I remember now, they were very nice but overpriced when new. Almost as expensive as the top range pocket bins but not as compact or sharp.
