Navigation Compass Orienteering Compass Hiking Compass with Adjustable Declination for Expedition Map Reading, Navigation, Orienteering and Survival (1 Piece)

Good compass. Does what we need it to do.When first opened it the needle was slow to respond, but after moving it around the needle seemed to free up and not had a issue since.

As described SUPER

Just what I ordered perfect cheap compass

The key thing is the kids I gave this to didn’t get lost.

This is a cheap and cheerful compass and has served me well on hikes in low visibility. The main issue is the wheel is very loose, and after setting your heading it's easy to knock it off course especially if you wear it round your neck or pack it in your bag. So you have to make a mental note of your heading then set the wheel every time you view the compass. This is fine as long as you're aware of it from the start of your journey, just a bit annoying though. Will buy a better one when I'm able to.

As a landscaper working the green patches of Hampshire, I’ve tangled with plenty of trees, but getting them staked in the right direction was always a bit of a gamble. To address the precise matter of tree staking, I recently acquired the Skylety Navigation Compass - an investment I deemed essential given the blustery southwestern gales. Before this handy gadget, my staking methodology relied upon mere intuition. Now, I pull out the Skylety and instantly know my South West from my North East! Furthermore, I am pleased to report that I have not once lost my bearings whilst traversing the treacherous terrain from worksite to wheelbarrow.Solid 10/10—my trees get staked in the right direction, I can navigate back to the van, and I look like I know what I’m doing!

Well, these are not good. I assume most people here bought only 1 and thought how good they are. But I needed 4 for my family, and as you can see in the picture, they all are basically pointing into different directions. You could argue that two on the right side are OK, but how can we know for sure? And even if they are true, that means 50% of them are faulty. So if you just bought one and don’t have some standard to measure it against, you won’t know is your compass pointing north or not.Additionally, they aren’t flat at the base. They wobble. You can’t lay them flat onto a map and measure stuff.Just poor design, poor calibration, poor product.

Small and compact, good quality and easy to use. Simple yet effective to sum up
