The Chris Gregory Signature Short Knife is a high-performance farrier tool developed through a collaboration between industry expert Chris Gregory and renowned manufacturer Morakniv/Frost. It is specifically designed to provide a "top quality knife at an affordable price" and is highly regarded for its precision in sculpting the hoof's sole and frog.
Key Features: The "Rooster Tail": A distinctive hoof pick extending from the end of the handle. It is used to clean debris like rocks and dirt out of the foot, which protects the knife's sharp edge from damage, and serves as a helpful tool for hot-fitting shoes. Curved Blade Design: The blade features an optimum slope and cup that allows farriers to create a flawless sole without the scallops and lines often left by standard drop-blade knives. Supreme High-Carbon Steel: Crafted from cold-rolled, low-stain high-carbon steel (specifically Swedish Sandvik steel). This material is hard enough to maintain a lasting edge but malleable enough to be sharpened to a razor finish in minutes. Ergonomic Handle: Features a short handle made from oiled birch wood for a natural feel and secure grip. The blade is centered in the handle to provide maximum power and control.
