"These are superb for trimming chin hairs, especially with ticklish horses that want to play with clippers. Easy to carry, inexpensive...I haven't used clippers for her chin in years. Thumbs up!"

"horse shave are great products! I have been using these for a while, and they are great the morning after you've clipped your horses' muzzle, ears, etc... I always seem to miss somewhere!!! They stay pretty sharp, so that I have been able to get several uses out of one shaver, which is really nice! They're easy to pack along too- not like packing 2 sets of clippers, oil, etc. Great product, and I have recommended these to all of my friends, who now use them!!!"

"I've used this product or something similar before. However, this particular product does not work as well. The blade is not close enough to the edge so that it actually works. Therefore, don't bother with it. Save your money."

"I have used a similar product that I purchased from my local feed and tack store. However, this product did not work at all. All three shavers were the same and would not cut my horses whiskers, which are not terribly long."

"I've always used the little purple shavers for one of my clipper shy horses. I ordered these for the first time from SmartPak, thinking they would be the same, and they look VERY similar, but are not quite the same. They aren't as wide or sturdy, and they just about don't shave the hair. I tried 3 of them from my pack of 6, and they all were terrible (left hair after multiple passes, bent, etc). Not sure if SmartPak just got a bad batch or changed suppliers, but the ones I received were pretty much unusable.
Mine came loose in a plastic bag, not in the "Horse Shave" packaging I'm used to. I'm thinking perhaps a new manufacturer dropped the ball. I'll be ordering these elsewhere for now."

"These are great for training a horse to have their face/ears clipped my mare was nervous around clippers and for a while I would just run these over her muzzle and on her ears and it worked great! I always keep a couple of these around for in between clippings"

"I bought these to use on my OTTB between proper shaves. He doesn't care about clippers and stands perfectly well for all the silly things I do to him, but I imagine that if you had a horse that wasn't as willing, these would be awesome. Very quick, just glides along the hair. I would say, though, to be better about changing the blades for your horse than you would when shaving yourself. :)"

"My OTTB is fearful of clippers of any sort. So when his whiskers were getting to look like an old man's I was desperate. I bought these and they work like a charm. They last for several uses and he does nothing when I use them on him!"

"Great little shavers, so easy to use. I can toss one in the grooming box to take to shows or pull one out for a quick shave at the barn. Beats unwrapping clipper cords, finding the right size clipper blade. So so so so easy and fast!"

"These are SOOOO convenient, especially if you have a young, nervous horse who's afraid of the clippers. I can shave my boy's whiskers, beard, and even touch up his bridle path! Great value for the price. I buy them 3 at a time!"
