Shoutout to the old gelding who taught me about hoof knives
Back in my first year, I'd sharpen my hoof knife maybe once a month. Thought it was fine. Then this 20 year old gelding in Cheyenne leaned his full weight on me, and my dull blade just skidded off a chunk of sole. Took me 15 extra minutes of careful picking. Now I strop that knife after every single horse, no exceptions. The edge just glides. Anyone else have a horse that basically forced them to change a bad habit?
