This is a very fine compass. I was pleased to give it as a gift. Heavy gauge and impressive.

I purchased this for my son-in-law for Christmas and he likes it very much; it is much nicer than what you can purchase in a general merchandise store.

Very durable and quite attractive for a compass! Good value for the price and it works like a charm. If you need to use it as an engineers compass, you can download the instruction info off the internet, no problem.

This fine brass compass is just as described. It's sturdy, hefty, good-looking, and easy to read and use, a good size to carry. I certainly recommend it.

Gave this as a gift to someone who loves to go hiking and campng. The size is great and fits comfortabley in a pocket. The brass on the compass makes it very sturdy. The look and design are very nice. Suitable for any age.

I found my way out of the jungle using this compass.

Nice compass but it comes without instructions which would be helpful especially if you want to give to a child.

Military design brass compass makes a great gift. My 11-year-old son carries his compass at all times, and is very proud to own it. He never leaves home without it! This is a great item for anyone who travels. It works perfectly and is durable enough to survive in the pocket of an adventurer of any age.

we gave this to our college student daughter so that she wouldn't lose her way home (and for camping too). It is simple, sturdy, and handy.

Brought six of these as door prizes for a Cub Scout event. Overall happy with the quality of the purchase. Great buy for a kids first 'engineer style' compass. However, the rotating bevel has two hash marks on same glass surface. Normally these marks would be on independant surfaces over the complass rose to keep one hash on magnetic north and the other 'points' were your going. The only explaination I can think of to do this, is to give the compass the 'look' of a more expensive model. Could end up confusing a kid trying to learn how to read a compass.

I bought this compass for my 5yr old nephew, so I don't know how much real-life adventure it will see, but it seems sturdy and well-made. It's in a heavy metal casing that seems to have very capable hinges, and it folds up nicely for protection and storage.
