Plastimo compass
This is the same compass, more or less, as the Weams and Plath. Very easy to use and quite accurate. I own both. When used at night shine a flashlight on it and the florescent coating will enable you to read the dial for the next few minutes.
Just a tip - when buying this compass make sure you buy it in the country you intend to use it in. Otherwise it is like that you will get a compass that is balanced for another hemisphere and it won't work correctly. Been there done that.
All in all a nice piece of navigational gear.

Unusual properties.
I use it to lubricate a metal fire piston. It took just one dab in the beginning and I've never had to re-apply it. It gives a good seal and lubricates very well. I can imagine that t has many other uses. I bought a small jar and it will last many years on various applications.
