Grinders: Sharpstone or Cosmic Case?

If you’re a hardcore weed smoker, it’s no secret that the best grinders remain an important part of your paraphernalia collection. But, let’s talk about the best ones on the market!

A great grinder is a thing of beauty. Just dump your weed in, make a few twists and voila—you have smokeable weed. Without the use of a good grinder, preparing to smoke weed can be annoying. No one likes to bust weed with their nails. Well, that might not be entirely the case, but you get the point.

That being said, not every grinder on the market makes your job exponentially easier. There are obviously some duds and some spectacular products available for your weed-smoking convenience.

You can compare a good grinder to a good weed. If the weed is not what you hoped you would get, you still would get high yet it won’t be to the degree and with the effects, you desired the experience to be. Same with the grinders – every grinder would grind the weed, it is just a question of how well would the grinder do the job.

The market for weed-related gadgets has spread significantly after more and more countries started legalizing weed for recreational use. The number of grinders on the market is ginormous. They come at different prices yet at the end of the day, what you pay for is what you get. Cheap grinders are available to buy everywhere, like for example on websites like Ebay or Amazon. There are more exclusive grinders which will cost you more, but the design quality and the final product that you get out of them is worth the money if you are a passionate weed consumer who would actually use the product a lot.

Because let’s face it, grinding the weed manually and then rolling it is okay if you smoke every once in a while, but if you are a regular user then it will end up being a chore rather than pleasure.

If you are thinking about investing in one such product for your weed grinding needs, here are some of the best grinders that you can find on the market!

But which is better? Sharpstone or Cosmic Case? It’s hard to say really. Check out our comparison below.
