    I’ve worked or volunteered for 4 different fire departments. Zero of them had any sort of diamond cutter anything that could be used for this.

      I own a diamond wheel for my dremel that will eventually gum its way through titanium.

      What about the claws of death, or whatever they’re called? Might be hard to get the ring only.

        Lol. There’s “the jaws of life”, but those don’t cut. We have “cutters” that are equally bad ass and powerful, but they’re still made of hardened steel, so they won’t cut the titanium, and they’re shaped/work like a beetles mandibles, so even if the could cut it, it would slide down on the ring before cutting. That would do a hell of a lot of damage.

          Haha! I have no idea how I got that completely backwards. I’m going to go ahead and blame it on the fact that I hadn’t finished my morning coffee yet.
