The Busola Badger Outdoor Prisma Military is truly a solid piece of equipment for its price – you can tell it's made for the outdoors, not just "for show." The aluminum housing protects the whole device well, and readings are stable even when moving, thanks to the dial immersed in liquid. A nice addition is the sight and the bubble level, which really make it easier to precisely determine direction in practice. The whole thing is easy to use and at the same time gives you the feeling that you have something more "professional" at hand than a regular compass. A great option for outdoor trips, survival, or even learning navigation.
Badger Outdoor Prisma Military Compass
Durable field compass constructed from premium-grade aluminum. The robust aluminum housing, when closed, securely shields the compass glass, guarding it against scratches and damage, while still enabling precise directional navigation.
Stability and precise operation
The liquid-dampened direction dial enables effortless use of the compass even during dynamic activities like running or marching. This feature ensures reliable performance both in challenging environments and during routine operations. The construction of the instrument makes it possible to determine direction with speed and precision.
Bearing compass function
The Prisma Military model features a bearing compass function. Outfitted with a lens sight, as well as front and rear sights, the compass enables highly accurate targeting and determination of bearings to remote points in the landscape. Additionally, integration of a level provides horizontal alignment for optimal compass operation.
Working with a map
Specially engineered for the accurate reading of maps, the busola features side graduations on the case lid for precise direction transfer, facilitating effective route plotting. North is indicated by a clearly visible symbol, while an angle and slope reference table on the base of the instrument supports field navigation.

-
The compass works, and for a layperson who uses it occasionally it is sufficient. The compass is larger in size. The build quality looks solid. A plus is the case for storage/transport.
-
Simple compass, seems solid. To sum it up, you can consider this purchase because it doesn't cost much and fulfills its function, but you should be aware that you can find something better.
-
Solidly made, good-looking and working compass. Additionally, the set includes a carrying case. For survival enthusiasts and for anyone who wants to learn how to use this useful tool. I recommend it.
-
It works and provides correct indications, but I think that at this price the frame around the glass above the dial and the azimuth viewer cover should be made of aluminum and not painted polymer. The table stamped on the bottom of the compass is unreadable without a magnifying glass.
-
A properly working compass with a phosphorescent dial that glows in the dark and in an armored case. I recommend it!
-
Solid housing, has everything you might need, big plus for the level. Clear markings, dial shines in the dark. I recommend.
-
A so-called housing, well secured. Feels durable. The compass is fairly sensitive, plus for the level and the optical sight built into the compass dial. A big minus for the lack of illumination of the north arrow!!! The dial glows perfectly in the dark but it doesn't matter if I can't see north :(. I recommend it only for daytime use.
