I'm just typing up some old college notes and come across this noseband. I've never seen one used before and had to google to see what it actually looks like.
It has 2 steel hooks attaches to a headpiece with an adjustable strap which goes over the nose, the hooks sit between the bit rings and the horse's mouth. Pressure is brought on to the nose by adjusting the strap that goes across the nose, when used with a jointed snaffle it pinches the mouth and increases the nutcracker action.
I don't really like the look or sound of it and was wondering what other people's views on it are?
Does anyone use them or have done in the past?
