Product Information
Full details
The Waldhausen Pearls Knot Halter is designed for horse owners who value both elegant aesthetics and practical utility during ground handling and stable management. Featuring a sophisticated pearl-adorned noseband and a durable 8mm cord construction, this halter provides a secure, controlled fit for your horse. While it is an excellent tool for training and general handling, it is important to note that knot halters are designed for supervised use and should not be left on horses while turned out in the field or left unattended for extended periods.

FAQs
Is this halter safe for pasture turnout?
No, knot halters should never be used for turnout. They do not break under pressure, posing a safety risk if the horse catches the halter on a fence or branch.
Can I use this for cross-tying?
It is generally recommended to use a standard flat webbed halter with a safety release for cross-tying.
How do I determine if I need a Pony, Cob, or Full size?
Pony size is for small ponies, Cob is typically for Arabians or smaller horses, and Full is standard for most average-sized horses.
Are the pearls fragile?
While durable enough for handling, they are decorative and should be treated with care to avoid cracking or dislodging during heavy impact.
Does the halter come with a lead rope?
No, the Waldhausen Pearls Knot Halter is sold as the halter unit only.
Troubleshooting
Halter slips or twists during use
Adjust the headpiece knot to ensure a closer, more secure fit around the poll.
Pearls look dull after use
Gently wipe the pearls with a soft, damp cloth and ensure they are dried thoroughly after cleaning.
Cord feels stiff
Soak the halter briefly in warm, mild soapy water and flex the knots to restore suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, adjust the knots so that the halter sits comfortably on the horse's nose, approximately two fingers below the cheekbone. Because this is a cord halter, it does not feature metal buckles; instead, it relies on the integrity of the knots. Regularly inspect the cord for signs of fraying, particularly near the rings and knot junctions. To clean the halter, hand wash it in cool, soapy water to preserve the finish of the pearl embellishments. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the pearls or compromise the cord material. Always store in a dry, shaded area to prevent sun-fading of the blue material.
