Military Compass Black

Amazing value, awesome product. This is a truly functional heavy duty compass that will last. I was looking all over for a high quality compass to give as end of the year gifts to our Cub Scout den, and I scrolled for pages and pages reading reviews before finding this listing. If you remember the old military style lensatic compasses, I was looking for a kid-friendly modern version that didn't feel or function like a toy, while keeping within our modest den expenditure budget for 9 scouts. This compass has EVERYTHING I needed, and at an incredible price. It has a metal body and bezel, the dial movement is very smooth, and it has a nice bright glow-in-the-dark illuminated face. It even comes with a storage pouch that has a belt loop! Our Scouts were very impressed and we hope to get started on the orienteering with them soon. Shipping was also lightning fast which was very much appreciated.

I have purchased some days ago and works perfectly, they have a lot of good uses and works pretty well. It comes with a special cloth for cleaning and protective package. The structure is durable and very handy to check the directions. It's very readable. A very good gift if you are looking for a present.

This compass seems pretty solid. The silver ring on top is plastic, which was kind of the only part that doesn’t seem like will last. Overall pretty happy with the price and I think it will work well to have as a safety item while hiking. I haven’t tried to change the declination on it, but I do see where it adjusts.

So much to say in short wording, this compass is made of metal and i compared it with my iphones compass in the Utillities app and got a slightly different reading of both devices not really knowing on any compass being accurate how to understand the differances with each other. very hard to know with any compass to know which one is really the correct reading but the item seems to be the best one out of compasses, it has a nice heavy weight to it seems very durable and the durability of it seems like it could last longer than a life time.the black style goes great with my tactical gear.This is Highly advanced technology off the grid ….period

pointer is spot on , well made and will last for years . Easy to use site line , great for Hiking , deer hunters or back packers . A must have . I highly recommend this compass .

very very well made, has a great feel and some authentic weight to it, readability is amazing and crystal clear,directions are accurate and precise. Highly recommend

1. Only a single phosphorescent triangle on the compass card; on the moveable GRADs ring the triangle used to point in the direction you want to go is only a printed outline and not phosphorescent. This makes it DIFFICULT TO USE IN THE DARK. 2. Reading the pointing angle is done by sighting through a lens, NOT VIA AN ELEVATED PRISM as shown in the direction booklet. The scale is in 2 degree increments. 3. When using the sighting lens for accurate reading of direction, it is VERY TRICKY to hold the compass up high and level enough to both visually sight through the sighting slit and the front cross-hairs to the target object. 4. The thumb ring is way TOO SMALL for an adult thumb. 5. The thumb ring is located on the WRONG END of the compass -- it is located on the far end where the cross-hairs are located, not under the sighting slit. 6. The thumb ring isINSUFFICIENTLY RECESSED. When the ring is stored it protrudes from the bottom of the compass, even if the lanyard is removed. 7. The compass DOES NOT SIT FLAT on a surface but rocks back and forth because the thumb ring does not open sufficiently to clear the table. 8. The target size table molded into the bottom of the compass CANNOT BE READ since it is the same color as the compass body -- BLACK ON BLACK. The same holds true of the side cm and inch scales. 9. The compass is HEAVY and bulky with relatively sharp corners. It must be carried in the provided pouch which is belt worn, not always the best choice. 10. The under-surface of the bubble level is not phosphorescent making it DIFFICULT AT NIGHT to ensure that the compass card is free to rotate. 11. The print size in the instruction booklet is TINY and therefore difficult to read.

Having owned many compasses in my life, starting with the Boy Scouts in 1972, this is one appears to be of excellent quality, easy to use, and bult solidly. I have not used it hiking/camping yet but for the money it seems like a good purchase. One small drawback. It is heavier than the plastic compassess that I've owned in the past. You cannot wear it around your neck like I am used to doing. It is too heavy for your pockets. needs to be stowed or hooked on your belt. No dela breaker but if you are traveling light, this is not the compass for you.
