YCM, founded in 1925, is Japan's oldest compass manufacturer. Even in this digital age, when heading to the mountains, it's essential to carry a map and compass and know how to use them for emergencies. Since its founding, YCM has prioritized quality and insisted on domestic production, so you can use their Japan-made products with confidence.

The Lensatic Compass features mil-spec markings.
A mil is a unit of plane angle that divides 360° of a circle into 6,400 equal parts. 1 mil is approximately 0.056° (360° ÷ 6,400).
1 mil represents a very small angle where the error at a distance of 1,000m is 1m. The smallest marking on this compass is 20 mil, which is 1.125° and the smallest in its class.
This is a Japan Ground Self-Defense Force issue item conforming to military mil-spec standards. Made of aluminum die-cast. It features oil damping for stable readings and has two types of azimuth scales: military mil markings and degree markings.
