The only implement useo in the work is a stout knife with a short fixed blade. Laying an eel. back down. upon the board, the cleaner nialt‘e‘s‘with that short stout knife one transverse cut three-quarters through it. last below its head. With a single deft swoop of the knife he slits the eel dowa with one movement. and cleans it totally with another. almost before one is aware that this has been done at all. and then he proceeds to skin the eel. an operation that requires besides knowing how to do it. strength and skill. Once more the knife is brought into play and this time the blade is worked under the end of the body from where the first cut was made, and downward in the direction of the tail. to the ex- tent of an inch. That inch is what the expert gets his hold on. Holding the eel up now by the head with the left hand. and holding it stationary and firmly. he grasps that freed inch of eel between the thumb of the right hand. on one side of it. and the blade of the knife, pressing it hard. but not cutting into it on the other. And then. with the firm clutch that he has thus got upon it. and holding the left hand stationary. he strips the eel forward and downward with the right. fairly stripping it clear of its skill with a sin‘ gle continuous movement. At the end of this. with a curving sweep through the air. he throws the dressed eel upon a pile of a kind. while the skill he toss- es into a barrel. Then he picks up another eel from the pile in front of him and repeats the operation. and it is all so quickly and so deftly done that you have to keep your eye on him not to miss any of the live movements in which the whole work is comprised.
