> 3 dayI bought a Chris Christensen Buttercomb 000 in 2018, on the recommendation of my groomer. I love that comb. Seriously, I hear angels sing as it glides through my double coated corgis and Aussie’s fur. Nothing better for painlessly removing loose and blowing undercoat. I love this comb so much, I bought myself a second one. Sigh. The new one has sharp corners on the ends of the comb spine (see photo of new and old comb). The pointed corners hurt my palm when I’m using it. Since I comb three dogs about 30 minutes each at least twice a week, this is a problem for me. I reached out to the manufacturer via email, (with this photo and explaining that they were the same part number with the same markings, both purchased from their authorized distributors). The reply I got was that their plating process has changed. It seems that a “grind the pointy bit off before plating” step was somehow removed from their process. And yeah, for $30 I don’t think my dog comb should dig into my palm. So now, I have to buy a snap on handle and increase my $30 investment by another $20 if I want to be able to use this comb without discomfort. I’m disappointed by this change, to say the least. If you happen upon these combs at a dog show or event, see if you can find yourself an older style. If you get stuck with one of these, go ahead and buy their $20 handle.

> 3 dayI bought all kinds of different brushes but this comb is best for my golden retriever - she is a field golden so I have no issues combing through her double coat with this.

> 3 dayThis really works well for combing the facial hair of my Maltese puppy. I don’t know why..it looks similar to other comb but really works well. Someone else recommended this to me. And it works great. Just a bit pricy.

Greater than one weekI thought this was ridiculously overpriced for a dog comb but my younger Bichon Frise kept getting mats in his fur. He still has mostly puppy coat and its fine and even with nightly brushing, he was getting matted around the ears and face. I keep them cut fairly short too. At last grooming, it was so bad, he had to have his ears shaved!!! :( I was desperate for help and read about this on a message board. It is a life saver. It doesnt seem to hurt, I am no longer ripping out mats, and it gives them that freshly groomed cotton ball look! I saw some of the handlers using combs like these at the Westminster show on the Bichons there. So I would buy it again. Money well spent!

Greater than one weekPurchased this comb for my Havanese, Niko, and it is the best I have ever used! Mats are so much easier to locate and remove. I also used it on my familys Maltese who is a nightmare to comb, and she slept while being combed. The Buttercomb makes the coat appear smoother and shinier, and does not pull like cheaper combs. Very pleased with Chris Christensens products (also bought the Mark I Slicker Brush in x-small), and plan to buy a CC face comb and brush in the future. My bag full of cheaper combs and slickers that hurt Niko will no longer be used! The shipper sent this in 3 days with a CC catalog as well. Very happy with product and shipper.

> 3 dayI use this on our wavy coated dog. Works great and helps to separate the hair before it mats. The comb has rounded teeth and tip, so more comfortable for dog. When I tried cheaper versions, dog was uncomfortable compared to using this comb. Using it for 7 yrs and just bought replacement.

> 3 dayWhen the comb arrived, I was surprised at how small it was. It works great and when they say butter comb its an accurate description. It just glides through fur. I recently got a goldendoodle and it works especially well on the face, ears and paws. Well worth the price.
