How to use it

Rest your thumb in the saddle behind the scalloped edge.
Place the edge on sturdy upholstery and draw it toward you with light pressure, in the direction of the arrow.
Gather the loosened fur by hand, then clear hair out of the scallops and thumb recess.

Before you try it

Try a hidden patch first. Avoid delicate, knitted or looped fabrics, and stop if the edge catches. Designed for upholstery, not for grooming your cat. Not a pet toy.

Where it is in development

Editable CAD and Bambu P2S print projects exist for this revision, and digital checks passed for watertight geometry and slicing. Physical fit, strength, wear and real-world performance still need testing before any listing.

What changed in V2?

The first design had a mostly smooth grip with nothing to show which way to pull. V2 adds the thumb saddle and arrow and keeps the scalloped edge. Testing will compare it with a plain rounded edge before the scallops are kept.
