Default Best brushes

I use a rake type brush to comb out dead hair but it seems like I can go on forever. I am worried that it will actually cut the wooly under coat instead of just removing loose hair. What do you use to take care of old hair?

I have a Kong rubber brush and I love it. It's great of the outer coat and pulling out loose hairs there. For the undercoat, I have a rake when it's shedding season.
