ust Heritage Lensatic Compass with Lightweight Brass Construction for Camping, Hiking, Backpacking, Hunting and Outdoor Survival

Wanted a backup carry compass after I misplaced my Army Lensatic compass (found it!!). This is a beautiful "vintage- looking" compass which is quite accurate. Compared it with my Army compass and my cell phone compass and it checks out well. All about the same, within a degree or so. I'd navigate with it. Others have commented that the bezel is to loose but mine is tight (and bezel is adjustable if it gets loose. Finish is good. Lightweight but solid. After a bit more Brasso on the case to bring up the brass shine I'll have it engraved as an heirloom from "old dad" and buy another to use. Inexpensive and fast shipping.

I like this compass but when I read the description that it has "luminous directional letters" I mistakenly thought it glowed in the dark. It doesn't. You will need a light source if you plan on using it at night. Other than that I am happy with this.

For a couple of months I have been looking for an analogue compass that was attractive, easy to read, and affordable. It seemed like that should be easy to find, but it wasn't. This, however, is exactly what I was looking for.This compass is attractive, and has a nice weight to it. It feels like a solid tool in the hand. It would make an excellent gift.

Gave one too my dad at the same time.

Not a bad little compass for the cost but not the best and is very heavy. I won't carry it because of the weight but does look cool for display and to me worth the cost just for that alone and well it does work as a compass :)

My 9 year old wanted a compass, this one is perfect. The brass is thick enough to get engraving done if you wanted. Perfect gift!

Much nicer than I expected, thoroughly pleased with this simplistic wellbuilt compass. Appears to be accurate.

I recently pulled this out for closer inspection after I purchased it earlier this year. This compass’s “North” actually points closer to South-East. Thank the maker I’ve never had to rely on this beautifully useless piece of equipment, it would definitely be a contributing factor in my death after being lost in the wilderness. My grandpa always said “if you can only do one thing, at least do it well”, the makers of this compass sold me a prop, it’s beautiful but nonfunctional, therefore I would not recommend this.

Cheaply made and is now broken after a week.
