Swiftly and safely address cattle bloat emergencies with our 10 cm double-bladed knife. Blade guard protects your hand during vertical cut. Hang it conveniently for immediate access.
Every cattle farmer needs a decent bloat knife. This one is made for the job. Just make sure it always hangs on the same handy nail to grab in that emergency. 10cm blade. 23cm over-all.
In severe cases, where a bloated animal is panting to
breathe, treatment is a matter of great urgency. Even a 30 minute delay can be
fatal. Use a double-bladed bloat knife with a guarded blade to protect your
hand- cow skin is tough to penetrate. Stab through the upper left flank
into distended rumen, the cut should be vertical and at least a hand-sized cut.
This produces an explosive release of rumen contents and immediate relief for
the cow. Your vet will need to be called to suture up the cut and administer
antibiotics to help fight infection.
