Comments about Silva Silva Guide Compass - Graphite:
I gave this compass to my grandson for Christmas. He is very curious about things and has a thurst for learning. He plays in the backyard woods with his friends and uses his imagination for the adventures encountered back there. I used a similiar if not same product at a government job and wanted him to learn how to use the compass. It's sturdy, easy to read, accurate and could help keep him safe in the event he gets lost. He loves it and will come to rely on it and it's fun.
