4 out of 5 stars worth z money   August 15, 2010
abkl
u have to balance it to get the right north otherwise it doesn't show z write direction. good shipping.


4 out of 5 stars Really good despite some reviews   June 30, 2010
VS
I've had little worries about quality of this compass, while reading some reviews. But it came to me in a good quality, with a comfortable soft pouch and it really works well. Yes, there's not much luminance on the arrows but that doesn't affect it's qualities for directioning. And the body is real metal, not plastic.


3 out of 5 stars Points NORTHish   June 25, 2010
Priority Shipping (Baked, Al)
Cheap Compass, but not good value.

Pros
Points North
Usable (but just barely)

Cons
The one I have received is not liquid filled.
The needle takes a really long time to settle
The compass needle is not luminescent.
The needle gets "hung up" even when it is on a level hard surface.

Summary
There are better compasses for the money.
Try the Brunton lensatic compass.
This one is not great.



5 out of 5 stars GREAT STOCKING STUFFER!!!!   June 15, 2010
M. Millar (Durand, MI USA)
"Santa" left this for my husband in his stocking and my husband really likes it. He uses it for hunting and just "in general." This is a great product for the "out-doorsy" kind of guy and has the potential for being extremely valuable in an emergency.


5 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for.   June 4, 2010
Julia Journey fan (Abq, New Mexico)
Is this a mil-spec compass? No.
Would I depend on it with my life? No.
Is it inaccurate compared to a 50+$ compass? Yes.

Bottom line: If you are going to be making long treks through the wilderness, then by all means, spend 50+$ dollars on a compass; I agree with you, its worth it. However, if you are a novice outdoors man who wants a cheap compass that will point north with REASONABLE accuracy, then this is for you. Frankly, for 7.00$ and change, its hard to argue.
