Amazon.com Product Description: This classic, analog compass provides all the information that got explorers around perfectly well for hundreds of years, in a snappy, optic green package. It features 2-degree graduations (the series of degree markings on the azimuth ring used for taking bearings) and adjustable declination (the difference in degrees between magnetic north--the direction the magnetic needle on a compass points--and true or geographical north, which is the direction maps are printed toward. It also features 0-35 degree inclination scale (the distance between two points on a map as they relate to the distance between those two points on the earth) and displays this in both inches and millimeters.

What can you say, a good basic compass. Seems to be made pretty well and it points north! Tally-Ho!

Great Value. I got these for my 11 Year old Scouts. It's perfect for what we're doing, beginning orienteering. If you need something more advanced this may not be the stable platform for you. But for beginning Boy Scouts. They eat up this compass. A rock solid beginner compass.

Basic compass but has all the markings needed. Works as promised. Happy with purchase.

For a little more money you can get a nice "Lensatic" military compass ... Read More

The Brunton Classic Compass is a good choice for the price. It delivers everything that you'd expect from a maptop compass... plastic base, bearings marked around the housing, easily rotating needle color coded for north and south, it even has a place for a lanyard or string to be attached.
The size is just about right for either a shirt breast pocket or to be carried in the hand in the field. The adjustment for declination and graduated measurements along the edge make it a most versitle tool.
In short, I am very pleased with this unit, and will recommend it to my students in the upcoming ... Read More
