Flexx Wood
A new take on the tried and tested.
Our compasses in the Wood series are strongly based on the previous compasses.
They are also made of birch multiplex and have a dark brown finish. This series is also supplied with high-quality leather upholstery. The wooden guides on the tools can be easily adjusted with one hand
