> A broken mouthed shanked bit is quite severe.... Typically the icelandic bit doesn't have a "purchase" to speak of. I am not sure how much of difference this makes in potential for severity over a shanked bit with a purchase, but I don't doubt that it does make a difference.
I'm not saying icelandic bits are good or bad, just an observation. Cheryl Sand Creek Icelandics Icelandic Horses and Icelandic Sheepdogs email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: www.toltallyice.com
