my god how do you open them ??? when I finally got it open I used some coconut oil to wax both ends any other tips ?
My first 8.5g tin of McChrystal’s Hops was quite the opposite. It seemed to open too easily, then one day the lid just slid off without my trying to open it and I lost half of the contents. I’ve had no trouble either way with my small (3g is it?) tin of O&G though.
After opening, decant into a snuff box or smash box

Squeeze the tin from the sides at several positions Ie from 12 & 6 o’ clock; then from 9 & 3 o’ clock; Eventually a “pop” sound will show the lid has become free. Unfortunately the smaller the tin the tighter you have to squeeze. If the snuff contains a high salt content then they seem to stick even more.
Thanks for the advice lunecat, I’ve had WOS tins that would only open when I put a hole in the bottom with a screwdriver.

The poltergeist might be my girlfriend… Though she seems to prefer my snuffing to any other form. Hates when I smoke cigarettes (which is much less in recent times though) or chew, tolerates cigars or my pipe, but is ok woth snuff, even seems interested sometimes. Conclusion? Poltergeist.
Dammit. Woth = with ^

I happen to like these little buggers. I have never had one that would not open when I wanted it to or open on it’s own when I didn’t. They are a nice size to stick in my pocket and easy to take a pinch or re-fill as wanted. Not perfect but not bad at all - in my twisted point of view…
