    You can use a punch or similar in a drill press to open any hook just enough to put your blade on.... No need for any special hooks.

    This is not arguing... plbass is being facetious. He is a friend of mine that I believe I helped on this very subject.

    If you are going to sell any, you must use the split ring to attach the blade. Or you can be sued by zman.
