What makes our combs special?

  • Smooth Points won't snag on your fiber.
  • A long taper is very important to easily penetrate the fiber instead of pushing it out of the way. Each pin is professionally made in an 8 step process for the highest quality tines.
  • Sharp, but not too sharp. A micro beveled tip on the points keep them sharp but not too sharp. Needle sharp points are dangerous to use, and easily bend the very tips if dropped.
  • Sturdy Tines. Not all Stainless steel is created equal. There are a variety of Stainless-steel grades with varying strengths and weaknesses. We use the stronger options for the superior combing experience.
  • Comfortable to hold and use. Ergonomic, one-piece hardwood handle feels natural in your hand.
  • Handcrafted in the USA from Cherry, sanded smooth, and finished with hand rubbed Danish Oil Finish.
  • Lightweight. The tines are 3.25 inch by 4 inch perfectly balancing weight and working area.
  • Cork Pads on holder and Clamps grips your table, and won't leave scratches.
  • With special thanks to Susan Mcfarland (Author of Combs Combs Combs) for her expert advice, feedback, and input throughout the designing process.
  • One system for all our combs and hackles. With our redesigned Holder, (sold separately here: ( bamfiberworks.com/collections/frontpage/products/wool-comb-holder ) all our Combing supplies all share the same holder and clamps so they work flawlessly with each other. The new clamps in our redesigned holder can be used interchangeably with our Hackles as well.

Now with (Optional) Magnetic Comb Caps!

  • Quick and easy to install and use. These comb covers snap on and off in a second.
  • Holds firmly to the comb with a strong magnet. No need to worry about the cap falling off as you carry them around.
  • You can install the cap while the Comb is full of fiber. Only covers the sharp points while leaving the rest of the comb open. If you need to set a full comb down you can clip on a cap until you have a chance to diz off your fiber.


What Combs do I need. Fine? Extra Fine? Super Fine?
Each comb has its own purpose. I recommend starting with the combs you will use most often and add to your collection as you need.
Fine: Perfect for most medium fibers like Romney, Suffolk, Shetland, Blue-face Leicester, and similar fibers . The tines are set approx. ¼” apart.
Extra Fine: Perfect for most finer fibers like Alpaca, Merino, Rambouillet and similar fibers. If your locks are very thin and tightly crimped you may need these combs to hold the fiber better than the Fines. The tines spaced approx. 3/16” apart.
Super Fine: (or Ultra Fine) These combs are designed for those fleeces with fine, thin, small, slippery, locks. Fibers like Angora rabbit, Pygora goat, especially fine Suri Alpaca and similar. Our Super Fine Combs are made with thinner pins than the rest of our combs and have 3 rows instead of the standard double row. This helps the combs hold onto those thinner fibers that slip through the pins of the the extra fine combs. The working area of this comb is 2 7/8" wide.



Single or Double Row?

Double Row: (Also known as 2 pitch) This is the most common and versatile comb. Double row combs help separate out the shorter fibers and second cuts from the longer stronger fibers. The unwanted waste will be left in the small space between the front and back row.
Single Row: (Also known a single pitch) These are very useful for blending double coated fleeces, or any time you want to keep all the fiber together.



Mini, Regular or Large Combs? What's the difference?

Note: These terms refer to the actual size of the combs.(Not the tine spacing) In any of these options, you can purchase them in Fine, or Extra Fine, Single or Double Row. (see above)
Mini Combs: These are our smallest, lightest weight combs. Perfect for doing small batches of fiber. When you first hold one you will be instantly in love with it! It's small size makes it easier on your wrists, arms and shoulders than larger/heavier combs. They will fit perfectly in any Bam Fiber Works comb holder. The working area of this comb is 2 1/2" wide.
Regular Combs: (This listing is a Regular Comb set) These are our most popular combs. If you are unsure what you need, go for this one. You won't be disappointed. Designed for the best balance between size and weight They will fit perfectly in any Bam Fiber Works comb holder. The working area of this comb is 3 1/4" wide.
Large Combs: These are our Largest basic combs. If you want to be able to comb more at a time this is the option for you! A slightly longer handle than our Mini and Regular combs with a larger working area. We redesigned our holder to fit these combs as well as our other combs. If you already own one of our holders make sure it has our logo stamped on it to ensure you have the redesigned holder! The working area of this comb is 4" wide.

The Best

I am really enjoying these combs! They feel good in my hands and work well. They are well made! I look forward to using them for many years! I do think a 12 inch hackle is next on my list.

Very Happy

These combs are great. They feel good to hold and aren't too heavy. They're also beautiful and smell really good - very high quality craftsmanship. I'm glad I bought the magnetic tip covers and holder to go with them, too!

Just what I wanted

I got the regular size combs with fine, double row tines. They’re sharp and work well. I have arthritis in my hands and was happy to find the design of the handle is a good thickness is easy to hold. I combed quite a bit of fiber pain free and the magnetic cover they came with is a very nice addition.

Wool Combs with holder

So far, so good. I have been combing some alpaca fleece that was sent to me from my step-daughter from Montana. The fleece isn't super clean, so the combs are helping get out the vm out easily. I'm pleased with the quality of the combs. Thanks for getting them to me so quickly. Good Product!
