The hoof nipper is a much used tool for the farrier. Owning a pair of sharp and precise hoof nippers is essential. Maximizing control over cuts while ensuring the safety of your horse are priorities in proper hoof trimming. Hoof Nippers allow you to trim around the hoof wall until the horse’s foot is the proper length. Equine Care Dropped Forged from high-quality Chrome Vanadium steel, machined for precision and heat treated for wear resistance.
Our professional hoof nippers offer a very sharp clean cut. The cutting edges stays sharpened, thanks to the design of the stops, which prevent the cutting edges from meeting just before they cut. We recommended cleaning the horse’s hooves first with a hoof pick and brush for everlasting nippers and healthier horse hooves. The best nipper length for you usually depends on the span of your hands.

Customers say
Customers find these hoof nippers well-made and appreciate their size, being small enough to fit small hands. They are easy to use one-handed, and customers like the spring action, with one mentioning it makes hoof trimming much easier. The sharpness and strength receive mixed feedback – while some find them sharp, others say they’re very dull, and while some find them sturdy, others note they’re not strong enough for full-sized horse hooves.

Great nippers!
Great nippers for trimming our mini donkeys. Works great. Good quality for the price. Highly recommend.
Lucky Seven Stables –
Nice design, and quality
I am using this nippers for trimming back the toe on my T-Bread horses the 12″ works perfectly for me. I wouldn’t suggest these as a primary nipper for a full size horse ( I use a 14″ with a 1″ wide jaw) these would be OK for minis or pony’s. Also as with any you would have to sharpen the cutting edge a little before use. it seems anything nowadays will always need a bit of touching up. :<)

Makes hoof trimming easier
Well made and easy to handle for small hands. I have an arm injury and the spring action makes hoof trimming sooo much easier.

Works great for pig hooves
I ordered these nippers to trim my pigs’ hooves because hoof rot shears were not strong enough. These work perfectly for what I need – they cut through thick overgrown pig hooves easily and smoothly, and are easy to use one-handed.
Amazon Customer –
Too small
Too small for most horses. Had to go to Tractor Supply
Julie –
Smaller size, hinge is helpful.
I really like the shorter handle size & the spring helps with ease of use for a female non-professional. The cutting edges are not as wide as full size clunky nippers but I feel like this was ok because I can be a bit more accurate by cutting led hoof at a time.I have only used them a few times, but so far I feel like its a good buy at this price point.

Sharp and the edging is ground right
This is an excellent tool imo and comfortable for me with or without gloves on. at like $42, seemed pricey, but the tool is well made and sharp edged like it needs to be unlike the cheaper others. I’ve found I like this brand and have a couple other items they make.

Duller than dull!
Iâm so disappointed in this product, and if I could would give zero stars. For $50 I would expect it to at least be able to cut through paper, but it literally doesnât! Thereâs another review stating it couldnât cut through butter, which is SO true, and I wish I would have taken that more to heart before wasting my time with these nippers. I tried to make one snip on my goatâs hoof and it didnât even make an indent where I had applied it. This is a baby goat, so his hooves are still pretty soft and leathery. Nippers were delivered yesterday, and are going back today! ðð»ðð»ðð»ðð»

Produkt ok, Preislich geht gerade so. Die Führung der Schiene läuft auf der Innenseite des Schenkels und klemmt manchmal. Daher Punktabzug. Ebenso Punktabzug beim Preis.
