It was a pleasure to see those different headstalls. I appreciate you making this video. At seven minutes in, the bridle bit you are holding has lots of movement and an aligator-type spade on there. Do lots of horses like that bridle?
That is an old Eduardo Grijalva, according to the stamps and style of engraving used, it was indeed made by Grijalva sr. All horses that have carried that spade loved it. According to Greg Darnall, the reason is that the alligator type spade fits perfectly in their curve of the palate of most horses which makes very comfortable for them to carry it.
I appreciate your consideration of the horse in how you flatten the buttons
Really nice work Jan!
thanks.

Did I hear you correct in saying that you wrote a book? If I heard you correct can you please tell me the name of it and where I can purchase it
Russell, when I use the phrase " in my book" I mean in my opinion. So no , I never wrote a book.
