It does not matter whether you are a happy owner of a large farm in the countryside or just sometimes like to spend a weekend hunting, you definitely can not do without a good knife for cutting the carcass and removing the skin. After all, on how quickly and qualitatively the carcass will be refreshed, taste qualities of meat, and the term of its storage, largely depend.
Knives for cutting carcasses of animals
A hunting knife is called a "skinner". It is distinguished by a curved "take-off" shape and a relatively small size of the blade, as well as the presence of a gutter for draining blood. Thanks to all this, the knife can easily cope with any given cutting tasks, be it a large beast or a small bird. Made of a flexible and durable steel blade allows you to bypass the bone, as cleanly as possible, separating the skin from the meat. In addition, the knife-skinner is convenient to use and to remove the skin from the rabbit .
Household knives and saws for cutting carcasses
To cut carcasses of pigs and cattle, it is rational to use household knives or saws. Unlike a miniature skinner, such knives have much larger dimensions: a thick butt and a reliable strong handle with a notch preventing the fingers from slipping. Most often, the handles of household cutting knives are made of durable plastic, which is able to withstand repeated treatment with boiling water and considerable physical exertion. The quality of steel for such products is also subject to special requirements, because the knife for carcasses must be both flexible and durable, not allowing chips.
Saws for cutting carcasses can be both manual (such as "hacksaw") and electric (disk or tape). Their purpose is to analyze the carcass on the carcass, including the ridge, as well as the separation of large parts into portions of chunks together with bones.
