This is my Prismatic Compass, I inherited it from my late grandfather, it was issued to him in during his service in the army. It is truly an honor to get to learn how to use and enjoy using this compass.
I use it for all the same functions as the lensatic but find that I am able to take more accurate bearings with this one, due to the prism that allows me to look through the sight and look at the compass plate at the same time.
My favorite things about this compass:
- very small and lightweight
- belt pouch is compact and easy to open/close
- the tight-wire sighting is very cool looking, and the narrow sighting opening helps me keep my reading accurate by helping keep objects in sight
