I didn't know these existed until recently.

It's a hair comb with one or more standard disposable razor blades set behind the teeth. The comb opens up and you can change the blades out when they get dull. Depending on how the comb is used, it can either trim or thin your hair.

What are your thoughts about these? I've never used one, but I'm really curious about it. Could this be a cheap and simple way to shave your head or trim your facial hair without using an electric shaver or electric hair clipper? If the power goes out and you need a trim, could you get by with a razor comb, or is that just what batteries are for? Battery powered hair clippers do exist after all.
 
I have one which I got to thin my hair and beard. It is Chinese made and frankly doesn't work very well.
 
Many years ago certain barbers would do razor cuts using a comb and a strait razor. The results were usually quite good, and the fee was higher. The process works best with damp hair. A good brand is “Trim Comb”.
