==Intention to Shecht and Jewish Force==
# A valid shechitah must be caused by the applied force (''Kocho'') of a valid shochet, but not necessarily with his intent. For example, if a valid shochet throws a knife in a random direction and it ends up shechting an animal, that is kosher, but if the knife falls or even if a valid shochet intentionally drops the knife in a way that shechts the animal would not be kosher.<ref>Simla Chadasha 3:1</ref>
