Horse Hoof Straight Knife
The fastest knife to use and easiest to sharpen, shorter, straighter blade for more precise frog trimming, comfortable combo grip handles: closed hand or thumb bracing, thin blade taper for quick sharpening and smooth shaving, smaller hook for clearing frog grooves and sulcus, bolt-mounted blade for long term stability, full blade taper from spine to blade thinnest, sharpest edges, cutting edge of blade extends back near the handle for maximum leverage, tough stainless steel no rust, durable, contoured hardwood handles, specialized for bar and frog trimming, not for “scooping” heavy sole
Sharpening the Zip: Frequent honing keeps this blade razor sharp. Use a fine grit, tapered, conical diamond knife sharpener. The Zip Knife is RAZOR sharp—be careful! Protect your blade: do not use the Zip on dirt, grit, rocks, or hardened horn: these are not hoof picks
