Dutch Combs An old, traditional way of preparing wool is combing. The double row wool combs introduced by Louet are most efficient on medium fibers. One comb is clamped to a table and the other is used in a combing motion to straighten the fibers. The tines are especially designed. They are not sharp, and still comb efficiently. They are made of nickel plated steel. The combs are made of lacquered beech and come with instructions. Mini-Combs The popular single row mini combs are an addition to our line that has become a token of Louet quality and usefulness. These handy tools are a unique device which can be used for dehairing and fine fiber combing. After combing, fiber can be pulled into a sliver or spun straight from the combs. Louet cares about your safety, and has ensured that the tines of the combs are not sharp. Also available are the double-row mini combs. These are similar to the single row but produce a perfect slubless sliver from extremely fine fiber. Both mini combs are made of lacquered beech and are light on the wrist.

Mini combs with single row are $72.95

Mini combs with double row are $109.00

Dutch combs, double row are $185.00
