It's true: diamond grit Sawzall blades and diamond edge round blades
are not THAT high, anymore, but I would rather start with a thin
abrasive cut off saw round blade to start with. How many Nautilus
shells will he chop up anyway?

I'd just try a fine tooth hacksaw first.
Might do fine on that shell.


Be almost like cutting a light bulb.
