Lice comb
A lice comb is a plastic, horn or metal comb with very fine (about 1 mm)
teeth that stand against each other. It is used to remove nits from hair.
Because the teeth are against each other, the nits cannot get through and
they are combed out of the hair. [MOT]
Bouchard (chisel)
Chisel with one or more rows of pyramid-shaped pointed teeth, similar to

with a bush hammer. [MOT]
