This Addition was suggested by Tobz1122 !

The saw i used was a blade from a jigsaw drill. They are really small blades which have small teeeth which is perfect for small jobs.

If you have a selection of small blades, choose the one with the smallest teeth as it will be the easiest to use.

Then just get some tape (i used electrical) and cover up about an inch on one end.

Then put it in the tin !

i dont know if this would work but maby you could sharpen the other side of the saw and use it as a knife, but you would need a cover of some sort or you would probably cut yourself.

A better solution for the handle portion of the saw blade would be to trim the part of the blade you would have taped down to the correct size to chuck into the hobby knife handle. This is a simple matter with a rotary tool and a cut off wheel. That would give you a larger, more firm surface to grip as well as allowing the blades to rest flat in the tin.
