Have you ever been traveling and knew you couldn’t take your grinder? How many times have you been on the road or at a concerts and wished you had a small, but effective grinder on-hand? This situation is exactly what led Tom Scharf and his co-inventor to come up with the idea for the V-Syndicate grinder card. They were visiting Canada for a few weeks in 2010 and didn’t have a grinder on hand.
These innovative inventors decided they needed to come up with grinder that was portable and could fit in anyone’s wallet, purse, or pocket. They decided to create a small, credit card sized object with sharp teeth like a cheese grater.
The first few attempts weren’t quite right. The teeth needed to be sharp enough to grind herb, but fashioned in a way that wouldn’t grind the users fingers along with it.
In early 2011 the patented V-Syndicate grinder card was born. The card is made of medical-grade stainless steel that won’t rust or tarnish and has sharp teeth embedded in the surface so it only grates the herb and not your delicate skin. It comes in credit-card sized options so you can stow it in your wallet and in smaller versions like key chains or necklaces so you can always have it with you. The wallet card has a carrying case so no residue transfers to your wallet or pocket. The size and fashion of the teeth also make the grinder card safe to take through security and customs.
The V-Syndicate grinder card won International High Time’s Product of the Year in 2011 and Product of the Year at the Kush Expo in 2013. To-date, more than 2 million units have been sold worldwide and V-Syndicate has offices in Amsterdam and Isreal. V-Syndicate collaborates with leading brands like Raw, Grenco G-Pens, and Davinci IQ and top industry representatives like Snoop Dogg, Cheech and Chong, Wiz Khalifa, the Jimmy Hendrix Estate, and B-Real of Cypress Hill to create custom products and integrate their product in others.
The grinder cards come in fine, medium, and coarse grating options and can do more than just grind. The card has other great uses for your smoking ritual. You can use it to scoop ground herb into your pipe or rolling paper. It works as a blunt wrap slicer and some models like the Ace of Spades grinder card also have a hole so it can be used as a roach holder. The grinder card makes a great addition to a 420 rolling tray.
When it comes to top-of-the-line industry-leading grinding and dabbing technology, V-Syndicate is at the front of the pack! Scharf says there are other great inventions from V-Syndicate on the way. The recently released Dabit Card is a small, portable card with a grinder, buit-in magnetic, double-headed oil tools, and a silicone carrying case. The Spark and Grind is lighter case with patented grinder card technology built-in. And the GrindxShred is a combination grinder card and rolling tray.
And best of all, many V-Syndicate grinding products are available for $4.20 at Everythingfor420.com!
