Headchef Samurai Metal Herb and Spices Grinder with Sifter Scraper – 4 Piece Grinder, 55mm (Gold)

Right...I swear to god this is the item to get. The tool of life. I've dropped it repeatedly while I'm sat hunching over a desk in agony and yet it contains the goods. I've got a feeling I could drop this from a car going at 80mph and it would keep shut. If I dropped it from a Helicopter, let's be honest... it'd be pretty bad. From a car however, it's good.If you require this for the grinding of the spiciest of herbs then I recommend it. I recommend it as solid 5/5. A god of a god... I aint giving this no Jesus rating, it goes the whole way.

The design of this grinder is great, 5 stars for that. It's eye catching and ergonomic. Although, the interior of the grinder is not so well designed. It's followed the contours and shapes from the exterior but this has led to corners and crevices where keef can fall in and build up, very hard to get back out.The build quality seems good, feels like aluminium. The magnet is very strong and I'd imagine if the grinder fell on the floor it wouldn't open and spill.The teeth array is really where this grinder gets let down. There's not enough of them and the shape of the teeth aren't that good for shredding bud (meaning you get less mileage out of each bag). You can tell they cut corners when drilling the interior of the teeth chamber because the teeth aren't diamond shaped, they're just the negative space left over from the drimmel that hollowed it out.The keef screen seems to be too small for the particles it's designed to filter. I've been using it for a week and it hasn't accumulated even 20% as much as my older grinder, whos screen is mostly blocked from use.If this was the first grinder I had ever owned I'd be very happy with it. But it's not. I bought a black 'GWHOLE' grinder on her about 4 years ago for around 5 pounds and that grinder is still going strong. It's nothing fancy, it's big and heavy. Is probably made from iron or something. The teeth are all diamond shaped and it makes short work of even the stickiest weed.My advice to people would be go with the cheaper options that Amazon provides. You're mostly paying for the Head Chef name brand with this one. Save your money and get something else.

Okay so I bought this in October of last year and have been using it everyday since it arrived in the mail. The grinder comes exactly as it looks in the picture. It has a comfortable size to hold and it isn't comically large or too small to be of decent use. The teeth grind substances very well and I've tried drier and slightly stickier types in it as well. The drier the substance is, the easier it is to grind it, but that's the same for pretty much all grinders.After 5 months of use every single day, my grinder still works perfectly. I've cleaned the sifter screen about once a month just so that herb dust can flow through again; after a while the screen does get clogged but simply brushing it with a brass brush or a stiff nylon brush quickly sorts that issue out. The only wear and tear I've experienced is the pink colouring fading in the areas where I've handled the grinder the most but this is to be expected.All in all this has been my buddy for about half a year now and she's still going strong. Awesome product and looks pretty in pink!

NOT WORTH IT!Bought and received the other day definitely NOT worth it for the price. I’ve put an ounce through it and I’m not happy with it. My cheaper ones preform much better. The teeth are okay but there’s not enough holes for the weed to fall through so just all stays in the top. The threads are too big so it takes forever to unscrew the main chamber...it’s says it’s ergonomic yet I’m already struggling to get into the main chamber because the top bit you have to hold is too small to grip especially when you’ve used it a couple of times once it’s become a little sticky. Yeh gauze is smaller than most grinders too and the bottom chamber is also hard to remover being so tiny.I read the reviews before I purchased and they seemed okay but I’m guessing the people who have bought and used this for so long haven’t really used any other product so they don’t even know this is inferior.DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT

Aged nearly 60, I’ve tried many many different grinders,.. but this is a dream. The dog toothed blades are as sharp as the name suggests. A fair sized well for ground herbs (will carry enough for a whole day).! The thread of the ‘twistable parts’ needs unsticking now & then as the ‘gubbins’ builds up,.. but it’s a real gem, perfectly sized to make twisting comfortable. Two twists & everythings ground to ‘fluff” & crystals.. WELL worth spending a bit more of your hard earned cash on. It’ll last a good while too.

Great grinder - nice medium grind, not too coarse or too fine on one pass. Not too many crevices for gunk to build up, and relatively easy to clean if it starts to accumulate. The screen is nicely fixed in place (still good after 6 months of heavy use) and the threads are well machined, it would be difficult to cross-thread it.Well recommended for the money, a good half way between low price and high quality - when I eventually replace it, it’ll be with another one of these.

Had a headchef grinder that I loved and the police took it so I bought this. It has clogged up like it is 20 years old making it stiff to grind and it tightens up that much you can't then open it. I have actually hurt my hands trying to get the bloody thing open. Definitely unneeded stress when I'm trying to chill lol.

I bought this boy thinking I was getting a slightly higher quality grinder than usual and it does have that appearance however after a week or so of daily use (few g a day) it has already become harder to use and has started getting bits of product caught up in the teeth. A great grinder for those who don't smoke daily but I wouldn't know about thr longevity of it tbh.
