Fager Marcus Sweet Iron Kimblehook Bit

The Fager Marcus Sweet Iron Kimblehook Bit delivers clear, effective control for riders who need more precision without sacrificing their horse’s comfort. Built for strong, forward horses that can still be sharp or sensitive, the Marcus strikes the right balance between leverage and softness. It’s the go-to choice when your horse pulls, gets high in the neck, or braces against your hand—but won’t tolerate harsh curb bits.

This bit features a double-jointed, tongue-relief mouthpiece that’s shaped to follow the natural curve of the horse’s mouth. It eliminates pressure on the roof and reduces tongue interference, giving your horse the freedom to relax and focus. The smooth, sweet iron surface encourages salivation, keeping the mouth soft and responsive throughout your ride.

The Kimblehook sidepiece adds controlled leverage and curb action without being aggressive. You get subtle poll pressure and increased stopping power when needed, without losing finesse. Rein placement can be easily adjusted—use the upper slot for a softer feel or the lower slot for more control. Whether you’re schooling, jumping, or riding a hot horse on the flat, this design gives you options.

This bit is made for horses that:

• Pull or lean heavily but react to strong hands

• Evade upward by lifting the head or hollowing the back

• Need a clearer boundary to stay in balance

• Become inconsistent in loose snaffles but too tense in traditional curb bits

The Fager Marcus Sweet Iron Kimblehook Bit gives you a tool that demands respect from the horse without creating resistance. It’s stable, smart, and built to keep the conversation between horse and rider honest—and effective.
