  • Good compass for the price
A military style compass, metal construction, and easy to use. It is a good piece of equipment to add to your bug out bag, or hiking backpack. Do not get lost, learn to read a topographical map, it might save your life, or the lives of others. If the GPS satellites are taken out, or the GPS device does not work properly, you have no excuse for not having a backup compass. Learn to use it, and you will be able to get to your destination, or get home safely. ... show more

  • Great Compass
Great compass for someone who has some experience. Not for a beginner. Excellent quality.

  • Great piece of genuine kit!
A genuine Milspec 6400mil compass. Just what I needed and a great upgrade from my older model that is due for 'retirement'. Great price and quick delivery (7 days from the US to NZL).

  • Replacement just as bad
Can barely see north needles phosphorous mark even after 2 minutes under a flashlight. For the price you would expect better quality. update: Got the replacement I requested and the replacement is just as bad. Seems for the price they can't afford to put enough phosphorous material on the north indicator so that it can be easily seen. Contacted the company and have not gotten a response. ... show more
