The Crank Noseband - The Swedish Cavesson
Hrmph! As a Swede, I'm offended. The Germans have named this piece of riding gadget "Swedish". I object, your Honour!
To crank is to twist. This noseband was not made to be loosely fitted, that's for sure. The pulley action of the turned back strap is the same as is used to secure cargo on wagons and trailers. It's a way to exert much more power than one otherwise could. This is around the horse's head!
Mouth cranked shut
with a crank noseband.
