| CS-012 Brass 2-inch Diameter Compass Slightly larger than our other pocket compasses, this lightweight compass features a needle hold-down lock which prevents the needle from wearing on the jewel while in storage. As with all our compasses, the case is suitable for engraving and is furnished in untreated brass which will develop historically correct patina in a short time. (This means it will tarnish unless you keep it polished.) [Pictured in lower left of group picture at left.] $15.00 | |||||||||

| CS-015 Mini Compass This is a very basic, no frills compass but do not be misled by it's inexpensive price - this instrument does point you in the right direction! Now, I wouldn't want to go to sea with this as my only compass, but for normal ranging or trekking or just keeping in my haversack for that spur of the moment hike, I would not hesitate to rely on this compass to get me back to where I started. (Just remember, always take a compass bearing BEFORE you head out so you know from where you started!) This compass also makes a good teaching tool for those just learning how to use a compass.

CS-016 Mini Spyglass Believe it or not, this little 3-1/8-inch long brass Spyglass actually works. I don't know what power magnification it has but probably not much more than 1 power. It is made of brass and is assembled with very fine machine threads and that means it can be completely disassembled for cleaning - but be careful! The threads are fine and are prone to cross trhreading. The glass optics are ground and do magnify the image you see. The optic is focused by moving the smallest pipe in and out. The solid brass instrument is unteated and will tarnish in a most historic fashion. With care, this Spyglass will last a very long time. $5.00 | ||||||||
| CS-014 Spyglass This spyglass is constructed of heavy-duty brass and contains four pipes. To focus, simply move the smallest pipe (nearest to the eye) in and out. This is the most powerful spyglass we offer and includes a machined brass lens cap to protect the large front optic. With care, this spyglass will become a treasured family heirloom. out of stock |  |
