Pictures What bit is this?!

[klom81]

Does anyone know what kind of bit this is?

My friend has sent me the photo asking me if I know what it’s called but I don’t and now it’s driving me mad 😂

I tried googling it but can’t find it 😔

This is the closest thing I've seen to one of those, though it's not identical... I'm no expert on unusual bits though

F-let baucher? (The letter between H and J has stopped working on my keyboard ... -t comes after the F )

That's an interesting one, looks a bit like wilson snaffle/baucher hybrid but no idea what its proper name is.

Pictures of Captain Sandy bits on the Intarwebs are sometimes similar, but with less bend, and sometimes look like the two small rings are on a tube around the main part of the bit...

Yes the captain sandy bits do seem to have a sliding bar through the middle of a tube mouth piece.

This on seems to have hanging cheeks independent from the loose rings. I can’t really work out the benefit of those above a normal loose ring????

Very frustrating.

That looks like a Swales straight bar snaffle. Quite a strong bit, I've not seen one for decades (thankfully), mostly used in racing.
