It can handle almost any climate... and withstand the abuse that comes with combat or serious outdoor use. This model is graduated in degrees.

ART & HISTORY 

The Francis Barker M-73 Compass isn't just a useful tool, it's a work of art with a long, storied history. The details that make the compass functional and rugged also make it stunningly beautiful and impressive to hold.

Francis Barker founded his company in London in 1848, and built a reputation for quality, innovation, and precision. Francis Barker compasses were used by Sir David Livingstone during his exploration of Africa, and by the British military in WWI. They helped Allied forces defeat the Nazis in WWII.
