Castration Knife

Castration Forceps Knife used to incise scrotum in calf standing castration

The testicles are removed from the bull by making an opening in the scrotum. The best method is to use the Castration knife since it gives excellent drainage and is much safer to the bull and to the handler as well. The danger of severing the large saphenous vein, which is found near the surface of the inside of the leg, is completely eliminated. The scrotum is properly disinfected and the testicles are pushed
up toward the body as far as possible with one hand. The Castration Knife is held in the other hand and is positioned with the blade open and exposed along the sides of the scrotum halfway up the scrotum, for good drainage.
Insert the blade from side to side (not front to rear), squeeze the handles and cut through the septum that separates the two testicles and pull down and away from the bull. This leaves the top ‑ as of the scrotum and the exposed testicles. Grasp each testicle individually and apply tension on the cord. Place an emasculator with crimper on the cord as high as possible and leave it on for about 15 seconds to reduce hemorrhage. Apply an antiseptic powder to help prevent bacterial infection.
