Professional style tools designed for the Grooming Professional or pet owner. Typical of the quality associated with this well-known and much respected German manufacturer, the range offers a selection of bladed knives for each and every dog breed as well as for use on cats, large animals and small animals. The Coat King range is ideal for use as an aid for hand stripping and especially for the removal of dead hair & undercoat prior to clipping or in between hair cuts.
Cattle and horse owners are also beginning to appreciating the benefits of using the Coat King and are quick to adopt the larger wide blade combs, which can also be used on the largest dog breeds. Many horse owners have discovered the effectiveness of the narrower headed blades for the tails of their horse.
These unique shape and design of these tools strip large areas of coat really fast, quickly and easily removing any loose hair, especially from those thick undercoats, which many breeds have. The Coat King is a great tool for aiding both detangling and dematting, if correctly applied.
Many dog and cat owners initially have concerns about using products with descriptions such as "blades" or "cutting edge". With the Coat King you need to have no fears, the individual blades whilst having a sharp cutting edge in the "curved area of the blade do not come in contact with the body or skin.
The blade tips which are curved, are flat and act as a smooth "skid" on the body surface gliding through the hair strands as you "comb", thus making the whole operation completely safe even in the hands of an inexperienced or first time user. Correctly applied you will find your cat or dog really enjoys the experience.

Coat Kings come in Mini Wide, Regular Wide, Double Wide and Triple Wide styles.

On most dogs (especially matted dogs) best results will be achieved with if you start with tool sizes #6 - #8 - #10 - #12 blades for preparatory work and thinning out the coat or undercoat
 …and then use a tool size #16 - #20 - #26 blades for finishing off coat.
As a good thumb rule…
the softer the coat - the higher the number of blades
the longer the coat - better to use more blades
very short coats - use blades fitted with the smallest gaps between blades
very long and or matted coats - start with low number of blades and finish with high blade numbers.
