I tested the Brilliant Cut Grinder for more than a year before reviewing it, and it’s served as my daily grinder for many years.
I was a beta tester for Brilliant Cut, but I take no credit for the MASTERPIECE, which is the Brilliant Cut Grinder. Credit must go to the designer and all of the earlier testers.
The Brilliant Cut grinder raised the bar and still reigns as a King in the weed grinder world. It’s impact and influence is easily identified by all of the copies and clones.
This grinder is threadless, gorgeous, and an absolute joy to hold and use.

Brilliant Cut Grinder Review Video
First Threadless Grinder
The Brilliant Cut Grinder is a threadless three-piece grinder. The top, bottom, and middle sections all clink perfectly with the magical force of neodymium magnets and some very clever design and engineering.
The magnets are strong, and the pieces align naturally. This is the fastest grinder to open and close.
The Brilliant Cut Grinder made all other weed grinders suck. Threadless grinders are much nicer to use than traditional threaded grinders. The Brilliant Cut Grinder raised the bar and set a new level of expectation and joy.
No threads means no cross-threading. No thread-jamming. No dirty or damaged threads. Ever.
The three-piece magnetic design makes the grinder interface very quick and natural. Reassembling the grinder by simply waving the pieces over one another feels super-human, and it’s so damn fun.
Never, Ever Jams. Never Cleaned
I’ve pushed more than 5lb of Southern California’s dankest, stickiest nugs through my Brilliant Cut Grinder, and it has NEVER backed down or needed any assistance. This grinder has one of the best teeth designs on the market, and they made revision after revision until the teeth were perfect.
The Brilliant Cut Grinder retains its buttery smooth operation even when its as dirty as it will get. Even when completely caked with grinder hash, this grinder continues to work just fine.
The most abusive weed to any grinder is CBD Hemp flower. For my ultimate grinder testing, I increased the humidity of my CBD nugs to 69% for maximum toughness.
These dank, moist CBD nugs bring ALL grinders to their knees. Many grinders jam up with even small chunks, but the Brilliant Cut Grinder powers through them with ease. The Brilliant Cut Grinder is a modern marijuana marvel.
It’s a Different Experience
I love smoking and vaping with other people and letting them use my BCG. They’re always drawn to the captivating gem-cut design on the top. The grinder’s soft satin finish catches the light and reflects different shades of its base color.
The Brilliant Cut is mesmerizing to hold and look at. Its design brings joy.
Everyone I share this grinder with is impressed with how quickly and easily the Brilliant Cut grinds through their nugs and how smooth it turns.
I had never seen so many people so happy about using a grinder, and then I realized I’d never been so excited to share my grinder. You have to feel it.

slx puts a coating on their grinders so nothing sticks, does brilliant cut do something like that to? I find the slx grinder is ok for a while but ultimately compressed weed sticking to the walls makes turning the grinder harder. that doesnt happen with this one?
Which plate would you recomend for a hybrid convection type vaporizer like the fury edge?
I use the medium grind for all of my vapes
Hey Troy,
If I use only convection, on-demand vapes (Grasshopper, Firefly 2, Firewood 5, looking at the TinyMight) would you still recommend the medium grind? I’ve heard these vapes all work best with coarse.
How long did it take you to receive your order it still shows processing and I placed the order over a month ago and I cant find any where to reach out to support.
