4 out of 5 stars good quality   August 2, 2008
This is a good product. However, it is not the same color as depicted in the photo. It is more of a darker gray.


2 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for   February 10, 2008

If you truly want a military compass, go ahead and save the necessary $70 and buy a good one, perhaps ordering it from Ranger Joe's in Columbus GA. It's worth it, for a compass far more durable than this one.


2 out of 5 stars just ok   January 7, 2008
I bought two and only one worked ok.
I will make this short.
Spend the money and buy a good one that works well.
Amazon would not take it back because of what it is filled with.



5 out of 5 stars Great product and great price   November 15, 2007

Given the price, I wasn't sure about what quality I'd receive. I've been very pleased with the quality of the compass. It was delivered on time, and my son is having a great time with it.


4 out of 5 stars Good for compass training and light hikes   October 15, 2007
  8 out of 8 found this review helpful

I bought this to see if it would be adequate for someone (nephews, etc.) to learn how to properly use a military compass. I checked it against my Cammenga lensatic unit and found that the one I received is accurate. Unlike the Cammenga, this light weight Brunton model would not stand up to rough treatment for long, but with proper care it will serve its owner well. It is made of metal and certainly adequate for light day hikes of a few miles or so and would be good way to learn how to use a military compass without spending a small fortune (only about $15). Even so, if you're going deep into the woods for several days, don't hesitate to spend the extra money for the Cammenga. Cammenga supplies the U.S. Military and the durability of their compasses is worth the additional cost.
