The Str8 magnifying lens has a new design and structure. It still attaches to any Str8 compass using the thumb strap and has the same adjustable angle (plus or minus 20 degrees) that the Str8 thumb compass has. The tower has been improved for greater strength and the lens mounting now includes a hand tensioner to prevent a loose and swinging lens. The lens includes stickers which can be placed on the lens to match and supplement the compass' direction line.
This compass by Str8 is slightly smaller than the original, along with a simpler housing. However, all the good features of Str8 compasses are there, including
Str8 introduces a compass ideal for younger hands. It is an ideal way to learn orienteering. A universal fit system is great for all hand sizes, left or right. Features:
The Str8 brand offers high quality, competitive compasses with top notch features. * One size no longer fits all when it comes to compasses. Str8 offers a range of compasses sizes to accommodate hand size, orienteering technique, and terrain type. * Each Str8 compass has three different angle settings for your thumb strap to accommodate your hand shape and to ensure that your direction arrow is always pointing straight ahead of you. * The base of each thumb plate features an anti-slip map gripper to avoid losing contact with the map. * A direction line runs from the point of the thumb plate right through the compass module to make it easier to take bearings while on course.
