Apparatus for extruding a food product substance and for cutting the extrudate from a die of an extrusion head of the extruder into pieces has a rotary shaft and a knife which is affixed to the shaft and which has two blades, each blade having a cutting edge, wherein the two blades are offset one from another so that one blade extends from the axis of shaft rotation for a distance from the shaft rotation axis for a distance greater than that of the other blade and wherein the shaft and blades and the blade cutting edges are configured and positioned with reference to the extrusion head and wherein each die is positioned so that upon exit of extrudate from each die and upon rotation of the shaft, one blade cutting edge cuts and incises a part of the extrudate substance and the other blade cuts the extrudate substance to obtain a cut piece so that the cutting by the two blades provides a cut piece having an incised part.
