Great compass, very good size, you can see that it will fit most pockets perfectly and it sits securely in the hand. An unusual thing is that the Terra version has interesting packaging :) and the brown part of the compass around the mirror is made of a well 'feelable' material, the whole thing gives a premium impression.
Compact baseplate compass equipped with a protective folding cover. Constructed from durable polymer and REVO (recycled plastic reinforced with hemp fibers) for enhanced strength, featuring a traditional box-style design.
Beneath the hinged lid is a mirror, enabling users to take bearings while simultaneously observing the compass rose. The mirror also functions as a signaling device, making it possible to communicate your location or transmit messages using Morse code. The transparent base is marked with a millimeter/inch ruler and two map distance scales.
A rotating ring with a degree scale is positioned on the polymer body. Within the ring, reference lines allow for accurate sighting, and an additional scale is provided for precise magnetic declination adjustment.
Photoluminescent markings on the needle and direction indicators ensure visibility in low-light conditions. The integrated magnifying glass assists in reading fine map details.
Included in the package is a lanyard featuring a safety release, suitable for wearing around the neck.

I have been using the compass for over 3 months and I am very satisfied. It is lightweight, yet has a durable casing. The sapphire needle bearing provides quick stabilization. The compass has all the features of a military product: phosphorescence, rulers for working with 1:25k and 1:50k maps, degree scale strip, and a mirror. For me, the biggest bonus is the built-in clinometer, allowing you to measure the angle of ascent/descent – you can find a description of how to use it only in the English manual https://silvasweden.com/cdn/shop/files/Compass_manual_-_Mirror_sighting_compasses_eng.pdf?v=12869669175525231054

A top-level compass for working with maps in the field. It has everything a good compass in this price range should have: basic functions, good build quality, thicker material, plus the mirror is really a great feature. The price/quality ratio is fair. No complaints at this price point. I recommend Silvia products.
