I had gotten one of those aftermarket gizmos with nylon blades, worked well but wore out the blades quickly and they were expensive, So I figgered I'd rework the concept and used old hacksaw blades instead of new nylon ones. Worked great til I hit a large rock, the blades shattered and sent shrapnel all over the place. Missed me, luckily, but found out about 10 min later some shrapnel had punctured my fuel can. 3 gal of mix drained into the ground. The next day I also found shrapnel had punctured a dripline, of course this was after the water cycle was done lol

I reworked one like you are talking about but made a blade to go on it. Had three points that came out. All one piece of metal. Used it about 10 minutes and hit a rock about the size of a golf ball. The rock hit the inside of my thigh and barely missed my balls. Turned the whole inside of my thigh purple.
