Lanyard with Scale Rulers for Compass
$10.00
Measure distance on 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 maps more accurately with a scale ruler lanyard.
Designed to carry your compass, it features a safety clasp and rulers for both 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 scale maps.
The compass manufacturer Silva stopped making these a few years ago and I saw this as a massive loss. It's a super helpful tool, so I wanted to make them available to everyone.
The scale lanyard enables you to measure the distance along curving and bending tracks, trails and routes.
- Compass not included.Discount: $5 when purchased with How To Navigate book (3rd Ed).
SHIPPING UPDATE SEP 2026 - I've recently switched shipping processes with Australia Post. As I iron out a few bugs in the changeover period, you might experience some delays. Thanks for your patience!

Thank you for commenting on the quality, Michelle. I worked hard to ensure the fabric won’t stretch, or the ink won’t bleed, as well as ensuring the clasps and releases were part of it. Thanks for noticing!

I bought this as a gift for someone who spends a lot of time working out in the field. Even though they have access to all sorts of fancy tech, they were delighted to have this lanyard. They put it on their own compass straight away and were looking forward to being able to use it next. Having it available in kms is extra helpful. A great piece of gear to have in your kit.

Thanks for letting me know your thoughts Jo. I’d love to hear how the production description might not have met your expectations that resulted in your rating. I’m always looking for how to make things better, thanks Jo, cheers Caro

Absolutely fantastic book. I’ve recommended it to many of my friends. The lanyard is a great addition to my compass too.

Oh, thanks so much for recommending it. The more of us who flex our navigation muscles – the better!

A very handy, well made piece of gear.
Caro Ryan (store manager) –
I’m so glad to hear you say that, Jan. I spent hours in Photoshop getting the design right and then working with the manufacturers to make sure the ink didn’t run, the fabric didn’t stretch, but that it had the safety catch and (my favourite feature) the detachable clip so you can take the compass off the lanyard to take a bearing from a map and then pop it back on again. Thanks for letting me know.
