Curb Bits
Curb bits are versatile all around bits useful on just about any horse past his early training. They come in all styles and are commonly made for split reins. Most of Gene's curb bits can be ordered either swivel jawed, having generous rotation at the cheek, or solid jawed often times referred to as stiff bits.
All Gene's bits are plain steel with sweet iron mouthpieces and all feature his fine hand engraved sterling silver as pictured.
Available silver finishes are bright or antiqued. Steel finishes can be either gun blued or matte grey. With use, the matte grey finish will develop a natural brown rust much sooner than the blued steel.
