Why is the grinder more consistent than others?
The first thing is by removing the axle; we establish a solid concentric build. This was a theory until we made several sifting tests and prove it works. Engineering maintains consistency.

Why the name is Knob?
Because there are knobs on the grinder. Also,when we call our grinder as “Knob”, it sounded good to our ears. Actually, we never heard the slang meaning of Knob before the UK promotion.

Why is the shipping price is different than Kickstarter ?
Inflation is in every country and fulfillment is harder than ever. It’s nearly impossible to fulfill the product without charging the increased shipping fee. As you all know we prepared our projected budget on 31 August 2021 and it changed now unexpectedly. We’ve worked hard to ensure the shipping rates are as accurate as possible during these rocky fulfillment times.

Do I get to see where the logo or where you will have an engrave ?
It will be at the opposite end of the existing logo. One side of the cylinder will show the Knob Grinder Logo and we are going to engrave your name/logo on the other side of the cylinder. Don’t worry about the shape of your customization, we will resize it.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
