okay , I'm here now.
take a hacksaw and carefully draw the blade through the center of the screw,creating a slot for a Standard Flat screwdriver to use on it.
I Robertson screwdriver wouldn't work.

Alright, i cant get the blade onto the screw. or at least not enough to get anytype of cut on it, i think i'm gonna soak it down in some WD-40 and try again when i aint so frustrated.

I should have said "Without the handle"
Maybe break a blade so it's shorter?
It's just a blade.
