Allows for effective communication between horse and rider whilst encouraging relaxation and salivation. Fixed ring offering a consistent contact. Mild bit designed to create less pressure than a standard French link.

Review: Double jointed oval link snaffle bit is a must have! - So I went on the search for a mild double jointed snaffle without loose rings ( I DO NOT like their tendancy to pinch and rub) and a smooth oval center (to minimize the discomfort on the tounge) and with a price that I could afford as a try it and see bit for a mare that had decided she wasn't particularly fond of any of my bits. Even the uber expensive ones. After a lengthy search with many disapointments I found this bit and decided to try it. First thing I noticed is it is smooth (was slightly worried it might have burs or rough places because of the very reasonable price and never ordering a bit I hadn't personally handled first). Lovely quality overall. A nice weight to it, not too heavy or too light. I just loved how it felt in my hands. Nice curved angle to it to fit my horses small and delicate mouth. It was everything I was looking for. The true test of a bit. First ride. This green mare can be rather opinionated and works very hard to tell me what she is thinking. She LOVED this bit (or at least tolerated this one best). She tries so hard to please and can get very frustrated if she doesn't understand what you are asking of her. This double jointed snaffle helps me give her more clarity in my aids and has really cut down her frustration levels. The curves and thickness are just about perfect for a comfortable fit. Overall we both love this bit and I really cannot say enough good things about it. I have since tried it on a couple others and so far its a favorite for all. Way to go JP Korsteel for a well made double jointed snaffle bit for reasonable cost! I wanted a very mild bit. The mildest I could find to be honest. I don't like using anything harsh. (Granted though ANY bit can be horrendous in the wrong hands). This bit gives me enough control when I need it (and when riding young colts let's face it sometimes you NEED it) but if your horse is real hardmouthed or likes to bolt through the bit this might not be the best way to go. Safety first. Other than that I love this bit for greenies to the been there done that crowd.
Review: Don't Ever Waste Money On Another Bit - this is the king of bits. It is the only type of but I will ever use on my horses again! I've tried everything! Even bought a Parelli Confidence Snaffle (which is very similar, to be fair, but thicker and heavy in my left brain introvert's mouth. Easy to ignore) and this is the only bit he hasn't fussed with. I started a colt on it and horses just carry it themselves because it doesn't punish their mouths! Awesome bit. And, just my luck, my uncle found a copper one lying in the road. Same bit! Just copper. So now I have two and I'm a happy camper! And so are my babies. Definitely recommend!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love the bit, but it came scratched
*by K***R on November 10, 2024*

I have used the JP curve Korsteel eggbutt snaffle and it is a very easy, gentle bit. I orderd another one, and need to return it for it has a scratch on the mouthpiece. I am hoping seller will make sure the next bit I order comes unscratched.
