I don't know what is proper but I made my breakstick out of a big piece of poly it is 3/4 inch thick and tapered to a pretty fine point, it is 1 1/4 inch wide all the way down the
8 inches of straight blade with a pistol grip, I wiggle it in over the jaw teeth with a lever motion and when I get it in good and deep "over both sides of the jaw" I use the leverage of the pistol grip to twist it. I use a lead in catchdog that I don't actually have to lead, and if you kill the hog he turns loose as soon as it dies. If you tie it down you need a breakstick for him, especially if it is a big hog that was hard to hold, you can drag him, the hog and the man holding the hog down trying to choke him off. I could teach him to break on command but did not just to prevent him hearing something similar and turning loose at a bad time.
