The rancher I helped for a while in south central Washington used a new tag knife. It took the bottom of the sack off slick as a whistle and no exposed edge to cut yourself on.

I prefer this way as well.wbvs58 said:When castrating I always use a scalpel blade only, I don't put it on a handle, just wrap it in the foil to hold onto. I find there is less weight and leverage to get kicked and do damage to me.

And yes it was a short scalpel.
