Review (3/5): Two combs, one 5 stars, one 1 star
I bought two, one for home and one for work.
The home one is great- best comb I have ever owned, by far. Works great for the beard, and I end up using it on my hair as well.
The one at work smells awful. I let it sit for a while to air out, but that didn't help. I washed it repeatedly, but that didn't help. On one side, the surface isn't smooth - it looks like half of that side of the comb was gouged. The good comb is smooth on both sides. This one smells strongly like rotting fecal material. It isn't getting any better. I grew up with horses, and worked on a cattle ranch. I can tune out a certain amount of odor, but this is repulsive. I don't want it anywhere near my beard.
If I could be sure that this is just a random bad comb, I would buy a new one to replace it, but at this point I have one good and one bad. Those aren't good odds.
Update - I let the smelly comb sit in the back of my closet for a couple months. Every now and then I soaked Eucalyptus essential oil into the scratched up side of the comb. It doesn't smell anymore.
