I love compasses. I carry about 3 in my EDC pack not including my iPhone apps. 2 are just small button/ watch strap compasses in my EDC box (2 is 1, 1 is none). My primary is a rotation of a GI Lensetic, Silva Ranger or Suunto M3.

TIP: On my map cases I sticky back velcro little button compasses to help.
