Abstract
A method for eviscerating a slaughtered bird, starting from the vent and directed toward the breast point, comprising first making a circular opening at the vent of the bird using a first knife and starting a second cut in the bird by moving a second knife from the circular opening along a path offset from a straight line between the vent and the breast point avoiding cutting of the entrails of the bird located below the straight line. Preferentially, the respective knives are removed from the carcass immediately after the respective cuts are made successively, the second knife retracing its path back to the circular opening before removal.
