Better than the SharpStone

I've been using a 2.5" SharpStone grinder and this beats it hands down with a much nicer feel 24 grinding "nubs" to SharpStone's 12 and also no tight lid leaving aluminum residue around the outer edges after grinding.



Another review gave this only 3 stars saying that it has a weak magnet however it works just fine: turn the grinder upside-down and the lid doesn't fall off even with a bit of shaking. What more does one need?



Also someone noted that this model's kief screen is too fine to be effective. While it does look that way I'm finding that it is equal in "production" to the SharpStone.



One complaint that I have with both products is that they require too many turns to tighten the parts together; surely these could have been machined so that a single twist would do the trick eliminating the need for a fine touch in order to get the pieces together without stripping the threads.More detail ...
