The Jointed Uxeter Kimberwicke is little more severe than the fixed mouth Uxeter Kimberwicke because of the broken mouthpiece. The Uxeter Kimberwicke is quite versatile and provides the rider with more stopping power when compared to the standard Kimberwicke. The slots in the cheek allow the rein to be placed on the top of the ring for a less severe effect or lower for a stronger result.
