Handcrafted eggbutt bit in brass and German silver.
The eggbutt rings are fixed: the mouthpiece does not rotate or pinch the corners of the mouth. The bit remains stable in the horse’s mouth, which reassures young or sensitive horses and makes contact clearer. The double-jointed design eliminates the nutcracker effect of a single-jointed bit: the central link lies on the tongue instead of rising toward the palate. Pressure is distributed across the bars, tongue, and corners of the mouth. The entire KavalBit range is shaped and finished by hand, using an alloy of 70% brass and 30% German silver. Brass has a taste that horses readily accept and encourages salivation; the shanks are made of stainless steel, with no free nickel, so there is no risk for sensitive horses. Excellent corrosion resistance.
