B&B handmade trimming knives (set with both coarse and fine trimming knife) with ergonomic, durable but soft handle.
For rough-haired dogs.
Here's how you do it:
1. Start by brushing the coat thoroughly and remove excess undercoat, first use your B&B card and ride after with either a roller comb for longer coats or a B&B gold comb for denser short coats.
2. Check that the outer coat is ready/ripe to be plucked by taking a few hairs with your fingers to test if the coat is loose.
3. You hold the trimming knife as if it were a potato peeler. That is you use your thumb to lift the outer fur and pull off the cover fur (a little at a time). Be careful not to trim the lower "new" coat. Finish trimming/picking an area so you can always see how far you've come.
4. Hold the trimming knife perpendicularly (90 degrees) and ALWAYS pick/trim in the direction of fur growth. Avoid bending the wrist, but make a straight pull. That way you avoid cutting the fur.
