What is the horse grooming tool I describe?

It has saw teeth between two handles and when not in use is curved, a rainbow shape.


I've read on-line and looked at photos of grooming gear.


Think I've hear that a curry comb is not a comb but a brush.


i would like to know as much as I can before I encounter the actual horse: two Percheron mares, actually!

What is the horse grooming tool I describe?
There are many types of 'curry combs', 'sheading blades', and 'groom-a'.





* Sheading Blades have two handles with a blade in the middle. some have teeth on both sides. One side maybe sharper then the other. (if your horse has sensitive skin use the less sharp.)





Some have teeth on one side and a smooth side. The smooth side can double as a sweat scrapperor to remove water after a bath. The teeth side is great to remove the winter coat in the spring.





If the teeth are small it feels great to a horse after a sweaty workout to take care of the itchy spots. LISTEN TO YOUR HORSE SHE WILL TELL YOU WHAT SHE LIKES.





*Curry Combs have one handle and two blades one side has sharper teeth then the other. Two blades mean double the hair removal. This is the one I prefer for removing winter hair in the spring.





*A rubber curry comb is in an oval shape with rubber teeth much like the metal curry comb except it fits into the palm of your hand.





*A rubber gromm-a or also called a rubber curry has larger squishy teeth usually square in shapeand the teeth a spaced further apart. This is best used in cicular motions over the horses body to help loosen the hair and dirt. It is a great year-round curry. I use it to help when our horses are sheading their winter coat and their summer coat. In the spring use it with a metal curry comb to REALLY increase the removal of a horses winter coat.





Happy Grooming !!
Reply:Sounds like a shedding Blade to me. A God send in the spring! (Removes winter hair like there's no tomorrow).
Reply:It's a shedding blade, used to help take excess hair off the horse; excess being a winter coat in spring.





A curry comb is a round, rubber brush with fat rubber 'teeth'.


It's commonly called a curry.
Reply:It is a shedding blade. i agree with the first comment good to get rid of winter coat in summer.
Reply:A shedding blade
Reply:yup, shedding blade...and it can also double as a sweat scraper if you turn it over and use the flat side! (great for after baths or on trail rides when they get sweaty)

Reply:it sounds like you're desribing a shedding blade. It's like a gift form God during Spring when horses shed the most. It also comes in handy for removing dried dirt on a horse's coat. This website might help you:
