you feel comfortable with your hands close to the mouth/tusk?
I use leather gloves, grab teh snout and pull up, mouth opens and the knife slids down teh throat to the heart.Packing house method and knife used in actual packing house hog slaughter outfit. Used to work at teh pig palace, I have seen some hogs in my days. I used to kill and smoke one a week for people, they got a smoked hog and 2/3 keg of beer for 500.00

I kiiled hogs large enough for me to ride on their backs, by hand, no guns allowed in packing house.

Wade into a pen holds 200 full grown hogs they will eat you if given the chance. Used to raise thousands at a time in teh confinement.
