We also use a scalpel both for exsanguination and butchering. Very sharp, cuts through everything but bone, quickly and easily replaceable when dulled and inexpensive.

I love crispy skin so it stays on the carcass.My new favorite knife.Works awesome for skinning chickens without cutting or poking myself or any bit of the chicken I wasn't intending to puncture. Really helps remove the skin well on legs especially, to get the skin flaps started around the hock joint, and separate the skin from the drumstick/legs. Also useful for connective tissue separation on back, shoulders, rear, etc. Not so much for parting the bird. Easy to sanitize and sharpen using a hand-held knife sharpener. Thought I'd share.
