Abstract

A comb and a method of making a comb having a handle including two main surfaces having a common edge and a plurality of substantially parallel, spaced apart, elongated teeth extending from the main edge. Each tooth comprises identical first and second sections, each including a planar base portion. All of the first sections are aligned and all of the second sections are aligned and the planar base portions of the first and second sections of each tooth abut and are transversely offset with respect to each other by a distance less than the distance between adjacent aligned sections. In this way the resulting spacing between adjacent teeth is less than the tooth sections spacing.
