My Path 22 Ti-Lume Compass arrived yesterday, and after handling it in person, I wanted to share an honest update.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!This thing is very nice.
Build Quality
The quality is excellent. The Grade 5 titanium feels precisely machined and thoughtfully finished. The stonewashed surface is smooth, refined, and rugged without being flashy. You can tell immediately this wasn’t rushed or cheaply produced.
The finish on the titanium is superb. Clean edges. No rough spots. Everything feels intentional.
Weight & Feel
It’s super lightweight — almost surprisingly so. On a keychain, it’s barely noticeable, which is exactly what you want from an everyday carry tool.
At the same time, it still feels solid in hand. There’s nothing fragile about it. It has that reassuring density that makes you trust it.
Dial & Lume
The dial is crisp and easy to read. The needle movement is smooth and responsive. The full luminous face is evenly applied and genuinely usable in low light — not just a faint glow, but something practical.
Overall Impression
I’m extremely happy with it.
It’s a simple tool, executed well. Titanium toughness. Clean design. No unnecessary extras. Just a reliable compass built with care.
I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
