All his bits were made from tool steel, and this little bit is a practical bit that can be used as either a training bit or a legal show bit. In addition to being an incredible silversmith, Gordon was also past member of the Rancheros Vistadores. The bit is in well maintained pre owned condition with some light oxidation on the sweet iron mouthpiece and tool steel "C" cheeks from storage and light use. This curb bit would be a great bit for the young that has graduated out of the snaffle bit and is ready for curb pressure and some leverage. The short, cutter shank allows you to easily flex the horse's head laterally for correct circles and turns. Overall, a really good bit for a horse that needs to pay attention but isn't ready for a longer shanked bit. The shanks measure 6-1/2 inches long with a 2-3/4 inch long purchase for a mild 2.36 to 1 leverage ratio. The medium port curb mouthpiece measures 4-3/4 inches wide by 3/8 inch in diameter and has copper inlays on the back to encourage salivation. The bit weighs 14.5 ounces so it is a very nice light bit for a young or green horse moving to a shanked bit. Don't miss out on the chance to add this amazing collectible bit to your training and show collection. Want to show in it? Have your local silversmith add some sterling to the cheeks to make it even more of a treasure!
