It came from The Tack Shoppe in Calgary, Alberta, owned by Graham Ranches. It was a 17 in. Passier all purpose, they said if I looked after it it would last me a lifetime. At the time I felt like I had won the lottery ! I am now 78 yrs.and it still fits me like a glove and is in excellent condition as I did exactly as you suggested, granddaughter has used it in Pony Club and she also treated it with respect. Good article.

I use toothpaste on my bit to really polish it, making sure I rinse it well afterwards. I really like the glycerine bar soap to clean the leather, like that shown in the picture.
