This is an awesome pre-owned custom made maker marked sterling silver circle shank vaquero bit with a medium cricket roller port made in 1992 by S.B. Grant of the Northwest USA.
This amazing hand made bit features circle style loose cheek steel shanks which are overlaid with sterling silver engraved plate and include a rafter "H" brand in the center of the circle. The bit has some light rusting as is typical of iron bits with no damage to the silver overlays. The medium high
port allows pressure on areas of the mouth without increased leverage or "bite" and
the cricket roller acts as a pacifier for the horse.
The bit is marked 1992 (the year it was made) on the inside upper right cheek, and S.B. Grant for the maker on the inside upper left cheek as shown in the photos.
The slightly tipped angle of the port adds more tongue relief and the curved sweet iron mouthpiece encourages salivation for a soft responsive mouth. This bit has a 2-1/2 inch purchase for faster response and excellent lift for control of the shoulders and stabilization of the front end with a 3.2 to 1 leverage ratio. The shanks measure 8 inches long and the mouthpiece measures 5 inches wide by 3/8 inch in diameter with a 1-1/2 inch high by 1-1/2 inch wide port. This bit weighs in at 1 pound 1 ounce for great feel and response.
This is a wonderful, well balanced bit and will make a great addition to your show bit collection and will look great in any show ring setting. Don't miss out on the chance to add this great collectible custom made maker marked bit to your training and show bit collection.
