  Very Unique Look and Style:

  May 26, 2016

  I chose this as an anniversary gift for my husband. It was perfect, and it meant a lot to me to give him a gift that would last. It was presented well in it's box and the card gave it a very expensive and quality look. I will definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a unique, quality and personal gift that you could not find in any store. I will be shopping again for a gift soon, because I have a big family:)
  
  Thanks!

  Excellent gift for young adults starting out.

  January 20, 2016

  I was looking for a gift for my son having just been accepted to medical school. I loved the symbolism and wrote in the gift card, even though it sounded corny, I said "You found your direction, enjoy the amazing journey!"

  Absolutely Beautiful

  This absolutely exceeded every expectation I had. The craftsmanship was gorgeous. The wood is beautifully distressed. Everything about it is just lovely. I can't find enough adjectives to describe it.

  Great Anniversary Gift

  I bought this for my husband for our 5th (wood) anniversary. He's not big on presents but he really enjoyed this one. Great quality product!

  The Perfect Award for a Geographer

  May 13, 2015

  My department procured these to present to our department's exceptional students at our annual Student Award Ceremony.
  They are beautifully crafted and the initials are a great touch. The students were overjoyed and commented how nice these looked. Definitely glad we found these!
  My only complaint is that the shipping may throw off the needle (banged around during transit) and it may have to be re-set. Initially, I thought it was broken and would need a replacement. Luckily, it's very easy to do this and works perfectly.
  Will re-order next year!

  Wonderful Success

  February 17, 2015

  I was very anxious about sending a gift that I had not hand selected from a company I had never used. All my concerns were a waste of time. My very picky friend was delighted. He said it was a beautiful wood that he would be proud to display on his desk. I thank you so much for providing a special gift to a special friend!

  Authentic in appearance

  February 13, 2015

  My husband is a forester and I thought this gift would be a great piece he could either use, or simply place with the rest of his cherished findings/collectables. Upon receiving the compass, I was pleased by it's appearance, even though the engraving is a little hard to see, but overall very pleased. Great gift idea!

  Unique Gift

  May 22, 2014

  I purchased this compass as a High School graduation gift. I loved the idea of a compass to signify "finding your way" for a future college student. It is beautiful. The wood is distressed to get the antique look, yet it is elegant. The engraving was perfect. I would definitely purchase this gift again.

  A wonderful gift for the outdoorsmen.

  April 3, 2014

  I found this online while looking for a set of personalized groomsmen gifts. I was hoping that the quality would be top notch as I couldn't "see" them in person because it was an interwebs purchase. But when they showed up, all my concerns vanished as they are well made and was exactly what I had hoped for when I ordered. Thanks Gift Tree for helping to make our special day even better. Cheers!

  Unique and Special Gift

  February 8, 2014

  I saw this on GiftTree's website and it fell right into my search: to find something special yet unique for my son that had recently moved to a different state. Order process was easy, quick, and gift arrived as promised even after a holiday Monday. My son was thrilled with it and plans to display it in his new apartment so all can see - he even was impressed with how well 'it REALLY works!" Ha Point being - the short poem I included which essentially added the meaning of him always being able to find home. Thanks GiftTree! You have so many great gifts - at great buys - for those great people that you want to feel special - for any (or no) reason at all. ~Julie

  Best reproduction I've ever seen!

  October 1, 2013

  This reproduction of Captain William Clark's "Corps of Discovery" compass is very close to the original. It's basic shape and design fits compasses made in the 18th century by such makers as Nairne and Blunt, and very much like one in the Smithsonian attributed to a Rev War Captain McClellan.
  
  Overall, I'm very happy with this little guy and plan to use it in the woods (alongside my Silva until I can trust it completely!). It's got a lot going on if you're into history.

  Beautiful wood

  September 28, 2013

  I ordered the compass and two leather passport holders, very pleased with both, the compass is beautiful and the wood is even more beautiful in person. The passport holders are gorgeous really nice leather the package they came in was so cute and when I opened it the smell of new leather hit my nose and I was happy. Can't wait to use them. Was a little unsure when I ordered these wasn't sure they would be good quality, but they are. Overall very satisfied customer.

  Excellent inexpensive gift

  Great Gift

  February 21, 2013

  I purchased this for my husband as since he is really into nautical themed stuff and he loved it! It was unique and well-made. The packaging wasn't great, but the compass itself made up for it!

  Lovely Gift

  January 31, 2013

  I ordered two of these compasses for two different people and am very pleased with the product and presentation. I had them both engraved, and am pleased with the quality. Didn't like that I had to pay for shipping twice instead of having them both shipped in the same box (they would have easily both fit in one). Also had difficulty with FedEx on delivery.

  Beyond words Beautiful and Masculine

  January 23, 2013

  I had this personalized and sent to my son for his birthday. He has a new office/den with a somewhat nautical theme. He loved it and said it was esquisite. My son doesn't talk like that! This one was so special and looked so good with the engraving, he even got a bit chocked up. I don't think it gets any better. I will forever shop with you for my kids. You has such unique and wonderful gifts at very reasonable prices. You make my life much easier and you ALWAYS deliver on time.
