- Two clamp-mounted hand-cranked metal meat grinders with metal handles. Both grinders have an open spout at the top that exposes an internal spiral grinder connected to the handle - at the opposite end from the handle is an export spout that can house different-shaped plates which can be removed via a screw. Below this mechanism is the clamp, separated by a short support. The larger grinder has two separate feet that sit on top of the table or counter with the clap at the bottom, raised or lowered with a key screw. The smaller grinder has a single plate with thin raised ridges on the bottom for extra grip and the same kind of key screw clamp coming up from the bottom. Also included are two plates, one for each grinder.
