Tre Spade #22 Hand Meat Mincer

The Tre Spade No.22 Hand Mincer is a traditional, Italian-built unit designed for users who prefer the control and simplicity of a manual mincer. Made with a cast metal body and a metal screw assembly, this hand-operated model is built for steady work on beef, lamb, pork and game without relying on electricity.

The No.22 head size gives generous capacity for a hand mincer, allowing more meat to pass with each turn of the handle. The stainless steel knife and plate create a tidy cut for mince used in sausages, burgers and general meat preparation. The screw mount clamps securely onto a bench, creating a stable base while cranking.

For anyone who appreciates classic equipment, minimal maintenance and Italian workmanship, the Tre Spade No.22 is a reliable companion for processing small to medium volumes of meat.
