   Summary: Confusing but it works.
I really thought that a compass would point at the letter representing the direction that I was facing. I was mistaken. It's a little more complicated than that. I called the company and a very nice guy named Mark carefully explained how to use this compass. It was not as I had imagined. But it does indeed work. Just yesterday I needed to find my way home from Long Beach. I remembered my tutoring from Mark and figured out which direction I needed to go. But I wish I had the simpler kind that just automatically points to the direction on the compass that I am headed in. Ignore this evaluation if you already know how to use a compass. The problem must surely exist between the hand and the user.

   Summary: Mmmmmm, Compassy!
This compass is just what you need if you're trying to navigate using maps. It's well made and very reasonably priced.

The compass is easy to read and is well damped by the liquid inside.

This isn't the type of compass you'd want to use for regular hiking, but it very well suited for use with maps and charts. Since it doesn't fold, you'd have a hard time putting it in your pocket.

For normal hiking, I prefer a lensatic compass. It's very easy to shoot a bearing to a landmark. Brunton makes a pretty decent unit.

   Summary: A good, basic compass
This is a perfect companion for basic hikes. Not fancy, easy to slip into your pocket, easy to read...it performs the job of a basic compass very well. For the price, this is an excellent buy.

   Summary: Great compass for the price
Of course this compass isn't made for exacting surveying work or the such. For that, get a super-nice expensive one. But for the average hiker, camper, or young person wanting to basically know which way is which, this is a great compass to buy.
The gradations and text is easy to read, and the compass is accurate. It even has the ability to use it on a map to determine direction to travel. I am quite pleased with this compass, and $10, I wouldn't be too disappointed if I accidentally lost it or broke it.
