DESCRIPTION

Take control of your feeding operation with the HLA Attachments Bale Knife Slicer the ultimate solution for clean, efficient round bale slicing. Engineered for livestock farmers, this heavy-duty bale slicer cuts through tightly wrapped silage bales with ease, dramatically reducing the mess, time, and hassle of manual bale handling.

Whether you're operating a skid steer, tractor loader, or telehandler, this bale knife makes feeding faster, cleaner, and safer especially in the heart of winter or mud season.
