Worth the money, you won't be disappointed.
Edition: Compass
Yes, more money than many of the offerings, but certainly you are getting what you pay for. The design is great, the instrument is beautiful, made of metal, heavy, everything works smoothly. You know this will last for as long as you take care of it. Overkill if you just want something besides a circle template for the kids to make circles. But I've tried the high-rated cheap instruments and they feel cheap, they wiggle, you're not sure if the circle will join up once you start to use it. You can use this to draw circles or to copy measurements on a map with two needles. You can use the wheel for fine adjustment and you can also open or close the arms smoothly by just pulling on them. You will be pleased with this purchase. ... show more

Nice compass
Edition: Compass
This compass works quite well. The adjustment is smooth and easy to set. My initial concern was that it might move or change adjustment on my while in use with how smoothly and easily it is to adjust but I'm happy to say it had never happened! I also appreciate the metal body versus most being made of plastic. I expect this to last for a long time. The extra included spare parts and lead are just another nice touch. I can certainly recommend this compass. ... show more

Look no further
Edition: Compass
This is BY FAR the best compass I have ever found. It’s heavyweight so you don’t have the slippage you do with others. I have bought 3 total (myself and both of my sons) for blueprint drawing.

Honors the brand
Edition: Compass
Faber-Castell has been around forever and is known for quality workmanship. This compass is made to their standards. Love it!

A little too cheap.
Edition: Compass
The metal arms are nice, but the screw locking mechanism as well as the nuts and holders for the lead and needle are plastic so I was never able to get them fully tightened out of fear I was going to break something. These longevity concerns lead to me ultimately returning.

ascention delivery service should be discontinued from amazon list of carriers.
Edition: Compass
I am sure this product would have met my expectations, as i have used this brand before. However, two times in a row i ordered this same product , waited 8 days for delivery, only to have the carrier say it was delivered, but never made it here. amazon took care of the refund as it was purchased through amazon. I never had the chance to try out this wonderfully german crated tool on the project i was designing. ... show more
