Why would you put that nice little compass on a fire?

(Just kidding)

The things I've come to EDC are my mini-Rittergrip, my BSA Hot Spark fire starter, a Fox Sonic(?) whistle, an Arc AAA LED light, and I used to carry a little Suunto keychain compass, but the compass didn't last very long being battered by my keys.

I need to find an alternative because I think a simple compass is important. Those keys are pretty abusive though.

Oh, I like your knottage ... pretty slick!
