A snaffle with two joints reduces the "nutcracker" effect to a degree because it comforms more to the shape of horses' mouths compared to the V of a single jointed snaffle that pinches on the bars and may even send the point into the roof of the mouth. So, the snaffle with two joints is less severe than a single jointed snaffle.
What else can I help you with?
Who invented the snaffle bit?
A snaffle bit is a simple jointed bit that does not provide leverage. Many snaffles are jointed bits, but not all jointed bits are snaffles. A mullen mouth is a curved, non-jointed snaffle bit. What distinguishes a snaffle is that the reins are attached directly to the bit without any sort of leverage, either through shanks or lower rings or slots.
Is a sweet iron smooth snaffle gag bit as severe or similar to a Tom Thumb bit?
The tom thumb will be the least severe.
Which bit is the kindest?
A smooth snaffle, but it should be noted that even in the smooth snaffle, a bad rider can make it a very painful, severe bit simply because of how sensitive a horse's mouth is.
Is arthritis in the joints such as the knees caused by a severe sunburn?
No.
Is a jointed bit more or less severe than a non-jointed bit?
I think that non-jointed bits are good for trails, it depends on what you are talking about. If you use your hands a lot, (holding on with your hands) you are going to want to start with a non-jointed one until you learn to feel the horses mouth. If you know how to half-halt and use leg-pressure than a jointed bit is right up your alley. I would say that a jointed bit gives more contact, but a non-jointed bit is gentler. If you have a professional in your area ask them to evaluate the horse and you riding and see which bit would be better. (I hope that helps a little bit)
