Santa Cruz ShredderGrinder for Spices Knurled Top for Stronger Grip 2-Piece Medium 2.2 (Blue)

This thing is situationally great as a general grinder for many different things. If you’re grinding something tightly clumped and sticky I can see how the durability of the plastic teeth might become an issue. As someone who uses a tougher metal grinder with a catch screen for those types of herbs, Im very satisfied using this for flavor additions like dried mint, lavender, rose petal, etc. It’s perfect and cheap as a secondary grinder for flavor additions of less sticky and less dense matter. No magnet to hold it together, it comes apart pretty easily in a pocket so it’s not suited for use as a travel container, but it grinds well and works for my very specific situation of blending various flavor herbs and flower petals as a secondary tool to help keep different tasting things separate. It’s also good for general use if you’re only putting it through light duty.

Nice compact. Grind is not to fine and not to coarse. 👍🏻👍🏻 good for pocket carry or traveling.

Definitely works better than youd expect for a plastic one! Gets it done and makes your spices finely ground. Genuinely impressed w this one

I absolutely loved how this looks but the size is a little smaller than I’d have liked. It’s easy to use but tends to get a little sticky after using with your flower. It’s sharp enough it makes for a perfect grind every time. I love that this is hemp too! The only thing I don’t like is how it sticks when you’re turning it after using it so minus one star for that. I’ve also included pics of how small it is in comparison with a 2.5” grinder. I absolutely love the design though and the material is nice. Not a bad price for it. Recommend this for sure!

Update: Seller reached out and offered a full refund. As the product did what I need it to do, I didn't take them up on their offer... but they won't leave you hanging if you are pickier than I, or require more out of the device than I do.Original review: A tooth in the grinder snapped off the first time I twisted it... It was empty at the time, so it wasn't because I over-stressed it. It's inexpensive enough I'm not bothering to return it, and it's still functional.I purchased this for breaking up flake (compressed into a brick, then thinly sliced) pipe tobacco, rather than grinding cannabis.I knew when ordering that it was small, so I have no complaints about that besides to note that if you're not grinding a material you use in very small quantities you might be better off with a bigger option.Starting with some Ennerdale Flake, it took me about 5 minutes to grind out a bowl full (Edit: Actually TWO) of tobacco. I had to place the tobacco into the grinder carefully, and grind in several batches, but it did produce good results.

This is a fine grinding technique

Not a good buy. It don’t stay closed and yeah. If u use for grinding, I would say pay attention. Not the best quality. Very poorly paid. I don’t recommend this product

Probably the best product for the costs on amazon. It's hemp, a trustworthy material.What else is there, especially for such a low price? Anodized aluminum or acrylic plastic grinders which, if they haven't been machined with very high quality practices or materials; can chip off and leave toxic materials in your herbs.Plastic can cause endocrine disruption in our body and best to keep as little in your system as you can manage. Plus it vaporizes at low temps.The cheap aluminum can leave paint & aluminum shavings which are horrendous (I had to deal with some), if eaten add to toxicity levels in the body - especially (pertinent if you're grinding herbs for foods or medicinal edibles; you don't want to put that inside your body!Anyhow - suffice to say, I've learned from my experience and research; aim for high quality manufacturing practices company however you can - whether very trustworthy materials like hemp/wood, but also steel or anodized aluminum or any other materials, metals and/or alloys; if they do it right - there won't be chipping you're in the clear and no need to worry; just avoid the super cheap toxic stuff.This product is superior to others grinder I've had in many ways. It grinds finely and smoothly for me so far. Very fair price. You can clean high buildup friction areas with q-tip and isopropyl alcohol to make sure it keeps spinning smoothlyIf you know it's just a simple, functional, pastel hemp 2 piece with no pollen/kief tray, and if you're okay with that; solid 5/5 purchase.
