Rhode Island Novelty 9" Stainless Steel Switch-Blade Folding Pocket Comb (1-Unit)

Made a good gift

Functions well

It works 2/3 of the time

Overall, I like it. If you're getting it mostly for the novelty value, go for it.The quality is... confusing. The important parts are made of metal, and the overall build quality is quite solid.There's a plate of metal on either side of where the comb folds in, and another folded around the plastic part of the comb to hold it in place. That part is quite solid.Conversely, the parts of the handle that you hold and the mechanism that launches the comb out both seem to be made mostly of cheap-feeling plastic. That includes the button to flip the comb out, and the lock that keeps it from flipping out in your pocket. The mechanism worries me the most - it always feels like it's about to break.Simply put, it feels like you could comb with it for hours without anything bending or breaking... but I'm always kind of nervous each time I close it, because it feels like it might not open next time.As for the actual comb... the teeth are really sharp!It feels like you're gently scratching whatever you're combing with it. Good if you have an itchy scalp or itchy beard, but not too welcome otherwise.The teeth are also very close together, meaning you need fewer strokes to get your hair to behave. Pretty convenient if your hair is practically made of copper wire like mine is. Not very convenient if your hair is easily tangled like mine is.All in all, it's a fun novelty and a mediocre comb, and it's built to actually be used. For the price, not a bad purchase.

This switch-blade folding comb is a fun and unique addition to my collection. The stainless steel design is durable and sleek, and the comb unfolds easily with a satisfying action. It’s a great conversation starter and works well for quick touch-ups. It's lightweight, portable, and fits perfectly in my pocket. If you're looking for something a little different, this comb is both functional and eye-catching. Highly recommend for anyone who likes novelty items or just needs a good comb on the go!

Ok so I got this a a gag joke thing.....and it gaged me opening it...idk why the box smelled like week old road kill...and not to motion the build quality...you remember getting those little dolls at Walmart...the cheap, sharp plastic of death..yeah it makes that stuff look like titanium! This toy knife thing....was so light and cheap it felt lighter then the foam it came in!! and I was like ok... can't be that bad....*opens, brakes in hand*.....DON'T GET IT!

Bought this a year or so ago and for the price it is a fun, stylish way to comb your hair.

it stops working after about a week or 2 and but is good for the price
