257334- Partrade Engraved Aluminum Short Shank with Non-collapse Snaffle

5" sweet iron mouth with copper inlay, 7-1/2" cheeks. This specially designed, non collapsible mouthpiece  "locks" preventing the joint from poking and damaging the horses palate. It also helps to keep the pressure where it is the most effective-- on the bars of the mouth-- encouraging clearer communication from rider to horse.
