K&R K-1 Compact Baseplate Compass

Built just like the K1-L, but on a shorter baseplate for more convenient packing and storage. This may be the most durable baseplate compass available -- anywhere.

K&R's thermo-elastic capsule is flexible, not brittle. This accomplishes two things: 1) the capsule flexes with temperature changes to keep out bubbles, and 2) the capsule doesn't develop leaking hairline cracks when you drop it (or step on it).

  • Fluid filled dampening
  • Thermo-elastic capsule for durable bubble-free performance
  • Bezel-free 0-360 degree azimuth scale (2 degree resolution)
  • Luminescent needle tip
  • 1:50,000 map scale
  • Cm and inch ruler
  • Comfortably wide neck lanyard with release

    Dimensions: 3.2in x 2.4in
    Weight: 1.1 oz.
