Let's not have the new kids become brainwashed by the code, those with only a short time in the field with the tools.

Most "seasoned mechanics" would agree "put the red devil" in and be done with it!

PS: I used the hacksaw for the time when I worked in the field and the tool that cuts the armor is good too, but still leaves a sharp edge.
