I have two saddles form Hnakkvirki, a Hrafn and a Eldjarn. I have had them both for several years. They are not the wides saddles on the market but I think they fit well on normal to slim build horses, for wider horses I use my wintec extra wide or an old gürtz tölt saddle we had made wider. I have alot of horses that are passing through so I need to have saddles that fit most horses as I can not get a new saddle for each horse. Then would I need 40 at the moment ;O) My first saddle was the Eldjarn. I liked it becuse it provides a "safe" seat with good kneesupport and a deeep seat. I is also short and fits horses with short backs. I use it mostly theses days when I ride the young and wild ones. My behind is not so small to fit so well in in anymore... Sigh... The Hrafn i bought as a long distance saddle for my hubby... but of course I need to use all the time! He It is longer and wider then the eldjarn and has a more relaxed seat for the rider. It is a very popular saddle here for companies like Eldhestar and Ishestar. The leather quality is good and they last and last.... Have anyone any experience of Ansur saddles?
