The Abbey England Flat Jointed Snaffle is an equestrian bit commonly used in horse riding and training. It is designed to provide gentle and effective communication between the rider's hands and the horse's mouth. The term "flat jointed" refers to the construction of the mouthpiece of the snaffle. Instead of a single solid piece, the mouthpiece is made up of two separate flat sections that are jointed together in the middle. This joint allows the bit to lie more comfortably in the horse's mouth and reduces the chance of pinching or discomfort. The snaffle bit is known for its mild action and is often the first choice for starting young horses or for horses with sensitive mouths. The jointed design allows for greater flexibility and encourages the horse to accept the bit and respond to light rein aids.
Due to the contagious nature of the equine disease EHV 1 and in accordance to biosecurity measures suggested by the American Association of Equine Practitioners we are unable to accept returns on bits.
