Seal, Mark
You take this comb, break the handle off, and use it to stamp your official seal of approval onto a document. It's kind of a messy marking process, but it gets the job done.
Imagine breaking and bending a comb so you can use it to stamp your seal onto things.

You need this seal to stay at an inn (いん). All inns require official paperwork, so you had to improvise and make a seal on the fly.
Hopefully the inn accepts this seal... or you aren't going to have a place to sleep tonight. And it kind of just looks like you dipped a comb in ink and pressed it around on some paper.
