It's not for the piranta it's for the barracuda which is the bigger of the havalon knives. I bet it wouldn't be all that bad, when they come out I'll grab one and test one in wood bones what not see how it works. But ya the blades aren't ment much for prying lol I finally changed my blade after 2 deer, this full season and last seasons ducks and geese so few hundred birds and this years spring bear so I decided time for a new blade lol.
