It is designed for riders and grooms who want to tidy and reduce a thick mane without the painful pulling and tearing of traditional mane pulling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe comb holds an exchangeable blade, so when the blade dulls you simply swap it rather than buying a new tool. It is best for everyday yard use on horses that object to having their manes pulled, and for keeping thick native and cob manes manageable between plaiting and trimming sessions.
