This rasp is so handy for taking down bars and cleaning up dead sole material. Sturdy gadget! Love it highly recommend to have in your hoof care collection!

LOVE this tool! I'm not sure I'll ever use a hoof knife again! As a layman, just doing my own horses, constantly sharpening a hoof knife and still having trouble getting it through a hard summer sole was frustrating. This tool takes all that trouble away :)

Another SUPER innovative product that works really effectively, doesn't over trim or hollow the sole, works like a CHARM on bars, and has a nice handy pick on the end. Another one of my favorite, must-have tools. I do not ever use a hoof knife, but rather use this, it's much easier.

I bought the Bar & Sole Rasp-1 to trim the bars and sole on my two horses hooves who have been barefoot ever since we have owned them. My husband usually trims their hooves but he has a strong wrist and hands and can use the hoof knife. I have found that I don't have the strength for the hoof knife, especially in dry, hot conditions. This tool is a god send! I often wanted to remove lumps or bumps or bar material before my husband got around to trimming their hooves and now I can. It works so well and is so easy to use. Now I just have to try the Bar and Sole Rasp-2!

Did not like at all. Tried on several houses with lackluster results that needed a knife in the end. Did not remove hard sole out bars
