The clamping ring is split and moves between an open and closed locked position. The bell is drawn up into the locked ring to clamp the foreskin. A handle is coupled to the device to position it. A thumb handle is coupled to the shaft for moving the shaft relative to the body. At one or two knife assemblies are rotatably coupled to the shaft. A plurality of skin clips is coupled to one of either the body or shaft and fixed relative to the bell for temporarily holding the foreskin in place against the bell.
