SharpSurvival Best Camping Survival Compass Glow in The Dark Military Survival Gear Compass for Hiking Backpacking and Camping Plan and Determine The Route to a Destination

The seller's title called it the BEST compass, so I was expecting good quality, however it feels a little flimsy and cheaply made. For the price I guess it is about right. Other than that, it works fine and appears accurate. Enjoyed using it on a recent camping trip.

For some reason I have a newfound obsession with compasses, understanding them mostly but very much influenced by the "deeper meaning" of a compass: "You're never lost" or "Wherever you go, there you are" or something to that matter. A compass, and this lightweight, larger than I'd like to be (I wanted to make a necklace to be aesthetically pleasing and functional, which by the way, is almost impossible to find), but with leather cord and my imagination, I can make it wearable, like a talisman, which I have many of that have significant affects on my daily life. I play with it all of the time walking around a store just enjoying "knowing where I am" or hearing Moana in my head singing "Come what may, I know the way...". I have no camping or exploration background other than local state parks, but it has a different meaning to me and if I'm even in a situation where I'm actually physically lost, it's accuracy and the glow in the dark feature will make it much easier to be "found". Compass doesn't work for being lost in the heart and mind, unfortunately. As I had mentioned I was happy to see the top was blank and the logo was on the back, so if I wear it, I can engraved it to personalize it( most likely a quote from Moana, and then the heart symbol, yeah I'm more in love with that Movie than my 4 year old), but I need to practice first being new to engraving, polishing, all things I use to make polymer clay beads and pendants for jewelry I make myself. I take on way too many art projects, the downfall of having a creative mind. It's more of a curse than a gift. I thought it would be more like a pocket watch and have a button to snap it open, but it's not a deal breaker. I wouldn't give it a bad review or 1 star over something so minimal, which I've noticed a lot of negative reviews over the dumbest things. It's rude in my opinion. At the very least "I was able to return it for a full refund, despite my lack of use for it because I thought it would be more like an iPhone and have a digital GPS and also sync all of my maps..." Seriously, waste less time on saying "IT SUCKS!" and more time solving the idiot problem you have. Love it! I really do feel like I always know where I am in relation to the rest of the world. It's almost like a social network, allowing me to pinpoint my location in regards to where the Dalai Lama is or where my package from Amazon is coming from according to it's magnetic pull to the north(even though it's not "true north"). So worth the more than reasonable price!

i like this product. Compass is kept in my purse as I enjoy using it whenever. Pretty and useful.

Needle is stuck and wont point to north, really cheap plastic. This product was designed to take your money not to show north.

Got this for my 9 year old when they were re-enacting the Oklahoma Land Run at school. It was more bought for a prop than actual use, but I still feel it was over priced and if I had bought it to actually use I wouldn’t have been happy with it. It is very flimsy and the needle doesn’t balance well. It is cool looking. My son thought it looked like a real old-time compass...but he’s also 9 and easier impressed than I am, lol. I would have been more pleased with it if I had paid about 5 dollars as in my opinion that was more the price for the quality of it. It did do the job for his program.
