Moon Phase 22 Compact Comb - Titanium (colorway options)
Moon Phase 22 Compact Comb - Titanium (colorway options)
Our moon phase comb is a handy way to determine the moon phases and groom your beard or hair. Take it with you everywhere you go!
How it works: Hold the comb with the teeth facing down and locate the moon in the day or night sky. Compare the shape of the Moon to the depictions along the spine of the comb and find the closest match. The Moon on the left is is the newest with the “waxing crescent” figure. The “waning crescent” is on the far right. The full moon is directly in the center. Left to right, new to old. (If you are in the southern hemisphere, right is new, left is old.)
At just 2.5" wide, this comb will fit in your wallet or coin pocket. A perfect everyday, or every night carry item. Offered in a tumble polished finish, or moon themed colorways. Crafted from aerospace grade titanium, the comb is virtually indestructible
Select the optional handmade Italian leather sheath to cover and store your comb. We also sell a Horween leather cardholder.
Each comb comes nicely packaged in our custom "matchbox" card stock package, suitable for gift giving or storage.

About our Italian Leather Sheaths
Our Italian leather sheaths are crafted by an artisan in New York City using Conceria La Bretagna leather. Each sheath is hand stitched with polished edges and are impeccably finished. We use an extra fine quality thread from Ritza-Germany.
About Titanium
Titanium was discovered in the late 1700's and named after the Titans of Greek mythology. The chemical element has the atomic number 22, hence the number 22 in the description of our titanium combs. Commercially pure titanium is equivalent in strength to common low grade steels, but when alloyed with other elements it becomes extremely strong with an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.
We use Grade 5 titanium alloy for our combs because of its superior properties as compared to pure titanium. Grade 5 is titanium alloyed with 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. This material is commonly used to manufacture medical devices, aerospace components and other parts that benefit from light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance.
