Ryding Adjustable Hoof Testers are premium, handmade diagnostic testers for locating painful areas within the horse's foot. Far more specific than percussion with a hammer, hoof testers are a core tool for farriers and vets when pinpointing bruising, puncture wounds and abscesses, and for first-instance assessment of bone disease or injury in the foot. What sets the Ryding pattern apart is its adjustability: the patented design adjusts from the smallest pony hoof right up to the largest Shire, and the jaws remain parallel throughout the range so you can apply a steady, consistent diagnostic pressure. The handle is designed for one-handed use, leaving your other hand free to support the leg or position the foot. Each pair is handmade in the United States from high-quality stainless steel and carries its own unique serial number. A serious investment tool, built to last a working lifetime.
Patented handmade stainless steel hoof testers that adjust from pony to Shire, with parallel jaw action and one-handed operation. Individually numbered.
