I Forge Iron

Whatzitt?? and what use is it???

Well, could have any number of uses, but I would suggest it is a ring for a bull's nose. The smaller ring would have a rope with a knot on the end passed through it. Makes it easier than tying knots on a single nose ring.

It is light duty, as the large ring isn't welded and the small ring is slotted and drifted from the parent stock with out upsetting, or drawing down. It looks freshly forged, as in no rust and stock steel size. I'd guess 3/4"x1/4" bent the hard way . I would be inclined to think picket ring like John suggests as it looks like 1/4" or 5/16" shooing stock. I will admit to initially thinking it was 1x1 1/2" but the lopsided small ring suggests smaller stock
