Trust Kimblehook Sweet Iron Waterford 16mm

The kimblehook cheekpiece is a kind of pelham but has a milder effect and is ridden with one rein. The rider can decide the sharpness of the bit. The lower the rein, the stronger the leverage, the sharper the bit. This cheekpiece gives the rider more control over the horse than a standard cheekpiece. The kimblehook is not suitable for the inexperienced rider.

A waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that forms towards the horse's mouth and creates an even pressure. It can move in all directions making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit so that the rider retains proper control. This bit is not suitable for inexperienced riders. In soft hands this mouthpiece is friendly but with a strong hand the bit can be sharp.

The Sweet Iron bits are made of steel and have a recognizable blue color. Sweet Iron will rust when it comes into contact with (air) humidity, the surface rust tastes sweet and naturally stimulates the saliva production. This will cause the horse to salivate more, which in turn will encourage a better acceptance of the bit.
