The Double S Clinch Cutter/Gouge Combo (often referred to as the Combi Tool) is a versatile "two-in-one" farrier tool designed to streamline shoe removal and hoof preparation. Produced in Italy by the Schelfi brothers, it integrates a sharp clinch cutter on one side and a clinch gouge on the other, all set within a single ergonomic handle.
Key Features and Use: Dual Functionality: The cutter side is used to open rivets (clinches) at the end of the shoeing period, while the gouge side is used to undercut the hoof wall, creating a pocket for the nail clinch to sit flush. Ergonomic Design: Features a wooden handle anatomically shaped for a comfortable grip, which helps reduce hand fatigue during repetitive tasks. Precision Materials: Crafted from robust tool steel to maintain a sharp edge through multiple uses. Handedness: It is available in both Right-Handed and Left-Handed versions to ensure the cutting bevel is correctly angled for the user.
