Grinders, What's your preference in spikes?

This is just about manual grinders, not automatic ones because those are basically just blenders.

I've had my grinder for probably close to 10 years now and it's a pretty solid unit. Not made from aluminum and has pyramid spikes.

I've tried some of the other CNC made grinders and I find the spikes don't do as good a job at breaking up the bud unless it's bone dry.

From what I've seen nowadays it's getting harder and harder to find grinders with pyramid spikes, at least locally anyway. Even in some of the "high end" grinders I've seen online they all use the machined spikes.

So what do you guys prefer for your grinders, pyramid spikes or the machined variety?

As you can see from the pic mine is a little beat up from banging it together to empty it out.

as long as it's not plastic

also I prefer them on the smaller side, but, that's another thing if you got one with a screen thing for sifting crystals.

I'd actually like to get a new one, mine is showing it's age, but I can't find anything non-plastic that has the shark tooth/pyramid spikes and the ones that do are excessively tall.

I don't need 7 chambers, the one I have now is just a 3 piece, the bud is ground in the top section, there is a screen separating the bottom and the crystal collects in the bottom. No unscrewing another chamber to dump out the bud or having to grind it multiple times to get the consistency I want because it all stays in the top portion of the grinder.

The screen on mine is held in with a C clip so it can be removed easily enough if I wanted the buds to pass through into the bottom chamber.

It doesn't actually collect that much kif now though the screen has gotten a little clogged over the years, I've cleaned it off but it's still much too fine to really do anything.

With really crystally buds I can get a fair bit in the bottom after a few runs though and thats kind of like my "I'm all out of weed now, so I have this little pile of kif to give me like 3 amazing tokes."

I have a great little grinder from Kannastör. It magically gathers kif to the bottom to make me feel sensi for lifetimes, and has been with me, travelling around the world and seeinshit for many years now. Originally bought it from a shop called Wonderland in deadend corporate West Palm Biach..
