TurnOnSport Orienteering Compass - Advanced Scout Compass for Hiking, Camping, and Backpacking - Best Survival Gifts for Kids

Nice quality and works well.

i got these to teach my nephews map and compass. the first thing we did was to place the compass on a compass prover i made some months back.i was really surprised to see that one of them is .5 of a degree out, the other was on the money.my opinion, this is a great value for beginner or someone not looking to spend a ton of money on something that will be used for back packing but wants a quality, trustworthy instrument. i would trust it with land nav in a heart beat.

I have been spending more time hiking lately and having a compass seemed like a good idea.When I go on hikes, I keep my phone with my keys and power bank altogether in my hydration pack. I do not want to chance having my phone in my pocket and have it drop in swamp water on the trail. Having said that, my phone was my primary source for orienting myself on the trail.Since I no longer use my phone I wanted something that doesn’t need batteries or a GPS signal to work. Hence, the basic compass.As a test, I went on a 6 mile hike with my group and we only used my compass when we went on new trails. It worked perfectly and it was easy to read. I have to admit, there was something a little special using an analog compass. It’s quite satisfying and I highly recommended it.The overall construction is nice and the color was vibrant (I selected the orange variant). It is super lightweight and compact, so throwing this in the pack was a no brainer.If I had a complain, it would be speed. The needle seemed to lag a little bit until it found north, but I’m not sure if it’s the needle or I’m just not used to old school tech.Summary: nice and cheap tool for a hiker that doesn’t want to drag more batteries out to the trails.

Easy to read compass with ruler and small magnifier. I put this in every shoe box ministry box that I send.

Worked great for getting objectives in Boy Scouts signed off.It’s not an actual BSA Compass, but there are many of this exact compass at camp

Great price. Same as the $10 version, except no special logo

This compass is easy to use, very light weight and small.

Seems good, but slightly broke on the very first drop on my hardwood floors. The central compass piece broke out of the rectangular plastic and cracked a thin lip of plastic that holds it in. I was able to fit it back together and it still works, but I'm worried it might crack further and not stay together.I know I shouldn't be dropping it, but accidents happen in the wilderness too. I don't feel this is durable enough if you need to rely on it in an emergency if it's cracking from a single 3ft drop unfortunately.

Good quality, great for hicking and teaching kids how to use a compass. Didn't break or leak.

I wanted a simple compass for travelling overseas and could not go past this one. It is clear, easy to read and strong enough to handle the knocks that are inevitable during travel. It is sturdy and very well made. I recommend this item highly.

Es un artículo que si bien no lo usas al tener gps u artefactos electrónicos es útil si no los tienes aunado a qué es útil en situación de supervivencia

Good quality for the price. Seems to be accurate

This compass is great using with a map as it is on a clear plastic that allows for exact directions while looking through at the map. It is compact , precise and a very useful tool to have on land or at sea. This compass is everything it is meant to be in a size small enough to hold in the palm of your hand , hang around your neck or stashed in a pocket. A vital tool that could save your life.
