Love this comb!
It is very high quality and very sturdy.<br /><br />Initially, it took me a while to get used to the smell.  It's sandalwood, and it has a unique smell that at first was a bit off-putting, but now I kind of like it.  The smell is also fading a bit now that I leave the comb sitting out on the counter top when I'm not using it.  Either that or I've gotten more used to the smell and just don't notice it as much.<br /><br />If this comb is hand made, it's made by someone who has been doing it long enough that they've mastered it.  The teeth are spaced perfectly and seem to be perfectly uniform.  I was initially hesitant about ordering it because the photos online make the handle look pretty thin and possibly susceptible to breaking easily.  I'm happy to report that is not the case.  The handle is round and pretty thick.  It's nice and solid.<br /><br />Also, it seemed rather pricey for a comb.  But now that I've got it, I'm glad I ordered it and may order another.<br /><br />Again, very well-made, pleasant sandalwood scent, probably better for the environment than plastic combs, and gets the job done.
