Key Features	Foldable blade construction provides compact storage and safer transport around livestock facilities. Short blade design supports controlled trimming of sheep and goat hoof horn. High-quality stainless steel blade provides durability and good resistance to corrosion during regular farm use. Professional grinding geometry supports clean and precise hoof-care work. Blade can be resharpened to maintain cutting performance over repeated service cycles. Ergonomically shaped wooden handle provides a natural and stable grip. Compact manual design requires no electricity, battery or compressed-air supply. Suitable for daily farm maintenance kits, sheep handling systems and mobile veterinary tool sets.
Structural Components	Short Hoof Blade: Designed for controlled removal of excess hoof horn and detailed cleaning work. Curved Cutting Section: Helps the operator work around the natural contour of a cloven hoof. Folding Pivot: Allows the blade to rotate into the handle for storage and transport. Wooden Handle: Provides a comfortable gripping surface for routine livestock hoof-care operations. Blade Retaining Structure: Maintains blade alignment during opening, closing and trimming. Metal Fasteners: Secure the handle and folding mechanism for repeated agricultural use.
Working Principle	Before trimming, the sheep should be securely restrained in a suitable sheep handling race, turnover crate or hoof trimming stand. The blade is unfolded from the handle and positioned against overgrown or loose hoof horn. The operator uses controlled drawing cuts to gradually remove excess material and clean the hoof surface. The short blade improves control in restricted areas of the claw. After use, the blade is cleaned, dried and folded back into the handle for storage.
