Cutting the cheese

After heating five gallons of raw milk until it was blood warm and the addition of rennet (made from a calves stomach), the entire five gallons became one large soft curd.  In the picture is my cheese knife that I used to cut the curd and the liquid is the whey that exudes from the curd during the cutting process.
