Pace count beads

[1] A typical example for military use is keeping track of distance traveled during a foot patrol.

There is often a loop in the upper end, making it possible to attach the tool to the user's gear with a simple Larks head hitch.

In this manner, the user calculates the distance traveled by keeping track of the paces taken.

To use this method, the user must know the length of their pace to calculate the distance accurately traveled.

An experienced user can also adapt the pace count for each hundred meter depending on the terrain.
