Not much to say nor complain about. It’s a comb – simple product. Had mine for a few months now and it’s like any other comb. Super portable, fits in any pocket, durability seems average. Hasn’t retained any smell or discoloration, but I also clean it regularly, as anyone would..
It’s a little stiff to unfold, but that might just be mine and not all of these. You could also lubricate it if you really got annoyed at the ever so minimal force needed to unfold.

Wow this comb is built vary well. The teeth are not sharp and my dog really appreciates his head being combed.
My only issue is the size and price, something this size should be priced slightly less. I will for sure be buying another one when I can.

I haven’t owned this for very long but I can tell you for sure that the first time you run that comb through your mustache or beard you can feel the difference. The Sawtooth shape of the comb conforms to all parts of your beard and mustache as you comb and it just Glides through the hair with no resistance because it’s not grabbing hair and breaking or shaving off part of the hair shaft which will turn into split ends or breakage. This is the comb that I’ve been looking for for 40 years. Very Compact and fits in your pocket nicely so you can keep it with you at all times in case you need to touch up. Some people have mentioned how stiff it is to open and for sure when you first get it it’s almost impossible to open up. I opened and closed it several times and it got better so I got the thinking. What if I put about a triple folded piece of notebook paper against the teeth as I close it and make sure that the paper stays flat. You could probably use one of those annoying pieces of mail that came to you unsolicited that are thicker , more like a postcard. Then I hit it with a blow dryer until it got warm through which was not very long. I did it again on the other side of the teeth and now it is firm enough to stay closed and still requires a fingernail against the end of the comb to pull it open, but it is MUCH easier to open now. I’m sure with use that it will wear in on its own but thought I’d give you a tip on the blow dryer. You don’t have to heat it all that hot but you do want it very warm all the way through. We’re not trying to melt plastic here we’re just trying to get it soft enough to conform to the friction spots. I can’t tell you how happy I am with this product. There are other brands and I did try to buy one initially but they couldn’t seem to get it delivered to me. I just looked for another brand and this company has been around for a very long time so I decided to go with them even though their ratings weren’t quite as high as my first choice. I couldn’t be happier. I would buy again in a heartbeat if I needed one. I probably won’t for a while because these are very well made.
Update: I lost my comb so instantly ordered another. I’m just going to address the stiffness of opening again. This one was nearly impossible to open, just like the last one was when I got it. Like I said before all it took was a piece of folded over notebook paper. Actually I folded it double and then put it around the teeth so that it would close with the paper around the teeth into a fully closed position. I hit it with a little hot air from the blow dryer so that it felt pretty warm and then let it cool with the paper in there for a bit and just like the last time, it opens and closes easily but still stays closed.

Isn’t loose, combs my beard well with no pulling or snagging, the “White Tokyo” celluloid looks great, very classy. It is a little tight, but the very tip of the comb extends a tiny bit over the handle so just use your fingertip to open it. It literally can’t fold completely “inside” the handle and if one can’t open it when closed I really don’t know what to say. In my picture you can see the tip of the comb that sticks out.
If it becomes a little loose over time, pretty sure you could gently squeeze the rivet with a pair of pliers and it will be as tight as new again. Like my other Kent comb it is of outstanding quality. Size is fine for me, it’s for grooming properly, not combing your entire Santa Claus beard in one stroke.
Lightweight, feels good in the hand. It’s just going to be tucked into my briefcase for travel, not sure how it would be in a back pocket, sitting on it. Might buy another with the “graphite” celluloid, which also looks great. Handmade in the UK rather than molded in China which I also like. Recommend.

I like these combs – this is my fourth order of this comb, but this seller sent me a broken comb.
Now they want me to mail it back in ‘original packaging’. The product arrived in a plastic bag. The plastic bag is gone. Now I’m stuck with a broken comb. Extremely unhappy with this seller. The manufacturer makes a good product. This seller wants me to mail a broken comb (in original sandwich bag packaging lol) back. If I wanted to mail things, I wouldn’t be shopping on Amazon. I don’t have time or bandwidth to package a tiny broken comb and find a place to ship it. This is absurd. Zero out of ten

This little comb is a part of my life now. It fits great in my pocket. It is durable. It works way better than any comb I’ve used in the past. It is super well made. Please don’t up the price, but I cannot believe you are selling it so low. Awesome comb. Thank you!
