Yup, it's a compass. Points to North accurately, is small, clear and the bezel moves smoothly. Good price, good quality.

Very good quality for the price paid. Recommended for normal.usage but for mill use I doubt those folks will buy them There are better brands. One thing is this model do not have arrays of luminous on the bezel ring which can help for visibility.I do not know why they do not manufacture it with the luminous ring. It will help in some way and in some.cases especially in evening walk but not night. There is one with a small bubble inside. So no ideal if it effect the performance..the needle still point north when compared with the 6 of them which are all the same make model brand.only one had bubble. So there you are a quality product. Not too shabby. Unless you want the absolute best which is the Cammenga and you have to fork out 100 plus plus dollars. For normal trek ok. You are not gonna get lost or it will mistrack. For budget wise it is fine.

So many cheap compasses these days that lose the magnetization. This one is clear, easy to read, lightweight, and very map-reading friendly. I take this with me every time I go hiking in an unknown area. Would definitely recommend this to the casual hiker who doesn’t want to shell out $50+ on a compass.

There are more elaborate and expensive models out there, but they will not do any more than this one does.

i picked this up as a last minute backup gear for a camping trip. It works fine, the magnetic north is accurate, and the compass was reliable. However, I didn't realize that this compass was missing 2 key features when I purchased it: adjustable declination and a notch or pointer at the top edge. The declination wasn't a big deal for this trip, but would be a pain for future trips if we go somewhere where declination is significantly greater and imo would have been a deal breaker if I didn't need the compass right away
