We designed the Pepperstick especially for restaurant use. PEPPERSTICK IS NOT DESIGNED TO STAND UPRIGHT as it is designed to be carried by waitstaff, or stored in its clip. (Would work well in a modern kitchen too). Fits easily in an apron pocket, in a holster, or snaps into a clip mounted on a wall. Good looking, easy to fill, adjustable grind size and almost unbreakable. Delrin mounting clip included. The PepperStick is not meant to stand upright on a table, but to be carried, or stored in its clip. Subtle and elegant, it is a great new restaurant tool. 9 inches tall, in black.
