Horseshoe Question

Where does this shoe rank?

I held one leg in a solid vise and bent it this far with one hand fairly easily to test the strength. I then tried to bend another just like it and couldn't move it. These are the only shoes I have access to and are too hard for me to bend (I've never bent a shoe before).

By the way it has 000 on one leg and SX7 on the other.

Thanks

the 000 shoes can be tricky because they are so small/hard to get a hand on. In terms of strength they are low on the totem pole.

SX7 is a Kerckhaert model I believe. Unless it's a general size or type. If it is a KH shoe, they're all super tough for their size. The general rule is the smaller the shoe, the harder.

Thanks guys.

I have done some of the Sx7 #2's They are hard for the look of the shoe but not to bad. I would guess the 000 would be a real tough shoe.
