Review: Excellent compass and I'm not a "starter" nor need you be one. - Everyone should have a compass and it should be a good, viscous damped compass like this one - sure there are cheaper ones without damping but these will drive you nuts as they swing back and forth before settling down a minute or two later which will be the last time you use the thing - when I hear otherwise intelligent people say they don't know how to use a compass I am stunned and immediately buy one of these for them - when push comes to shove your cell/pad/GPS/etc. will not get you out of the woods gracefully as knowing how to use a compass will - even lack of sun will get you so lost you will find yourself somewhere the Deliverance movie cast looks like the intelligentsia - just remember to always carry this with you even if in the emergency compartment of your backpack or whatever. Review: Basic compass - This unit is a base model. Serves it's purpose for beginners or budget minded persons. ## Features - Base plate is designed especially for children's smaller hands - The rotating capsule has a 2 dial graduation and clear base plate that makes it easier to read a map and plan the course. - Inch and millimeter scales are provided for mapping or plotting - A lanyard hole on the base palte makes for easy carrying - Weight: 0.9 oz. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001M5TN3W | | Additional Features | Portable | | Best Sellers Rank | #575,096 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #1,039 in Compasses (Sports & Outdoors) | | Brand | Silva | | Brand Name | Silva | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 93 Reviews | | Item Dimensions L x W | 2"L x 3"W | | Item Weight | 1.6 ounces | | Manufacturer | SILVA TECH4O | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2801290 | | Map Scale | Inch and millimeter | | Map scale | Inch and millimeter | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | 2801290 | | Product Dimensions | 2"L x 3"W | | Special Feature | Portable | | UPC | 842569009403 083828012905 400106964846 083828011205 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Silva - **Material:** Plastic - **Item Weight:** 1.6 ounces - **Product Dimensions:** 2"L x 3"W - **Special Feature:** Portable ## Images ![Starter 1.2.3. - Compass - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71gsxBum1uL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it point north in the Southern Hemisphere?** A: It will always point magnetic north no Mayer where you are ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent compass and I'm not a "starter" nor need you be one. *by J***N on June 13, 2013* Everyone should have a compass and it should be a good, viscous damped compass like this one - sure there are cheaper ones without damping but these will drive you nuts as they swing back and forth before settling down a minute or two later which will be the last time you use the thing - when I hear otherwise intelligent people say they don't know how to use a compass I am stunned and immediately buy one of these for them - when push comes to shove your cell/pad/GPS/etc. will not get you out of the woods gracefully as knowing how to use a compass will - even lack of sun will get you so lost you will find yourself somewhere the Deliverance movie cast looks like the intelligentsia - just remember to always carry this with you even if in the emergency compartment of your backpack or whatever. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic compass *by J***. on November 11, 2025* This unit is a base model.
