A working comb with a 3 inch blade hidden in the handle, in a leopard print that looks like it belongs on a vanity.
This is the one that reads as a beauty product rather than a tool, which is most of why it works. Leopard print on a comb is completely unremarkable. The teeth are real and it combs properly at 6.5 inches. Pull the top section away and a 3 inch single-edged blade slides free, because the comb body is doing double duty as the sheath.
Shipping note: we cannot send this one to Pennsylvania, Massachusetts or New Jersey. Those three states regulate concealed and disguised blades in a way this product falls under. Every other state is fine.
Why this works
- Reads as a hair accessory rather than as a weapon
- 3 inch single-edged blade, released by pulling the handle section away from the comb
- Full 6.5 inch length, so it combs properly instead of being a prop
- Nothing to unlock or unfold, so it comes out in one motion
- Cream, black and tan leopard print that looks at home in a makeup bag
- Light enough to carry every day and small enough to forget about

Before you carry it
Knife laws are set state by state and city by city, and disguised blades are often treated differently from an ordinary folding knife. Some places restrict them and some ban them outright. Check the rules where you live and anywhere you are traveling before you carry it, and check the policy of any workplace or venue you are bringing it into.
Care
Keep the blade dry and wipe it down if it gets wet, because moisture is what marks and dulls a blade over time. Wash the comb section with warm water and let it dry fully before putting the two parts back together. Store it closed.
Use it for
Everyday carry, a makeup bag it can live in permanently, travel, and the walk to the car after a late night.
FAQ
Is the comb actually functional?
Yes. The teeth are real and 6.5 inches is a usable comb length, which is what makes it convincing.
How long is the blade?
3 inches, single edged. The comb is 6.5 inches overall.
How does the blade come out?
You pull the handle section away from the comb body. The blade is fixed to the handle and the comb body is its sheath, so there is no button, spring or lock to work.
Does it lock open?
No. It is a fixed blade in a sheath rather than a folder, which is why there is nothing to fail and nothing to learn.
Can you ship it to my state?
Everywhere in the US except Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New Jersey. Those three regulate disguised and concealed blades specifically, so we leave them out. Whether you can carry it is a separate question and still worth checking for your own city.
Is it legal to carry?
That depends entirely on where you are. Blade laws vary by state and city, and disguised knives are frequently singled out, so check your local rules before carrying it.
Does it come in other colors?
The same comb is available in pink, black and galaxy print.
Does it make a good gift?
It is an easy one to give because it is genuinely useful and it does not read as a weapon when it is unwrapped. Just make sure the person receiving it can legally carry one where they live.
