This bit features black steel seven shank cheeks with a Myler MB36 forward tilt mulllen mouth. This is a Myler level 2-3 bit.
The MB 36 is a Myler alternative to the traditional mullen, but it has a wide low port that allows the tongue to pass under it comfortably. The port is tilted forward at a 45 angle, allowing just enough room for the horses tongue to elevate slightly and swallow, but not high enough for palate pressure. When the reins are engaged, the MB 36 applies pressure primarily to the bars and lip but also applies tongue pressure because of the forward tilt. Sweet iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.
The Black Steel Seven Shank is a length of round black steel in a 7 curve, with a ring purchase and a rein ring. The mouthpiece is fixed to the cheek with a decorative stack. The entire shank moves independently of the mouthpiece. The purchase is slightly angled away from the cheek to avoid rubbing.

- Seven shank cheeks
