For show horses, especially those with white socks, a #30 blade might be used to trim areas like the muzzle and bridle path. Because these are a closer cut than a #10, they can also be used to clip designs into your horses coat. I have personal experience with a 20-year-old set of Oster clippers that is still running to this day.

Well, maybe you could over a couple of weeks, but it just wouldn’t be worth the time or effort. They are usually small and rechargeable or battery operated. There is no point in having a cord in this category of horse trimmer.

I’ve included one which does have a little bit more power than the cordless counterparts. If you want to go with a corded model, this is the only one of value in this category. One thing I can say about the Oster company is they have been around for a long time. I haven’t used this clipper but it gets excellent reviews.

Cordless is absolutely my preference when at all possible. I understand corded clippers have their space in the barn but cordless is far more convenient. There are a few different versions of this on the market but they all help to do the same thing, the lubricate and cool the clipper blade. Whatever the case may be, you want to make sure you have at least one full can of this on hand before starting to body clip your horse.
Giving your blades a good spray should be part of your routine when putting your blades back in the tack room. This is the type of clipper I had as a horse-crazy kid. It was budget-friendly (I’m sure I got it second hand even) and absolutely did everything I needed it to.

Product Specs
The standard color is burgundy and looks great too. There really isn’t much “bad” about this clipper. I’d buy this one over an A5 if I were shopping today. Andis does a great job with all of their horse clippers and this one is no different. These Oster clippers really are the standard.

My horses either tolerated clipping or they didn’t and I moved on with my day. You see, I’ve always ridden primarily trail horses so it didn’t really matter either way.

If you have multiple horses you are going to be doing body clips on, you may want to make sure you have multiple cans on hand. OK so we’ve covered clippers and blades but this article wouldn’t be complete if we didn’t cover some must-have accessories. I’m going to list a variety of items here but remember, always check the manual on your brand of clippers to see what they recommend specifically.
That’s not where these clippers excel though. Some models will have built-in features that make it easy to switch out blades. The easiest to change are usually clippers found in the all-purpose category because they are designed to be able to handle a variety of clipping situations. Sometimes, due to their price range, it’s not even worth it to sharpen the blades on those clippers. OK so horse trimmers are horse clippers but “trimmer” more accurately defines what the clippers in this class are made to do. These horse clippers are great for minor touch-ups.
But, I know some of you show and really need your horse looking her best when she enters the ring. In that case, all my showing friends swear by ear plugs. Apparently these get less clippings in them than the fleece fuzzy ones. This is like the stuff you use to spray out your computer.
