A Marijuana grinder. I like foraging for foods, so I tend to use the grinder on things like Staghorn Sumac, or Spice Bush to make a course grind. It allows a lot of control on how much you want to use and how fine, unlike a blender.

Before it's asked, I actually have never smoked weed. It was listed as a "spice grinder" and I never thought it was for weed when I got it.

My mother in law gave me a spice grinder as she had a spare. This raises some questions.

Your mother in law is a real one. Hopefully this answers some questions!

Hey, maybe she just wants course ground yarrow for tea.

They were spice grinders originally.
