Woody weights

To those of you who have used woody weights, the nose taper seems quite long.  Could you put a bear razor head on them?
And still use the bleeder blade?
Or would you have to grind a little off the end?

I doubt you would be able to use the bleeder without modification.

Too long for a Bear (and most others) unless you slotted it.  The Eclipse bleeders sit much farther forward than most and they are still just a hair too long to use in the Eclipse 4 blades.

Dremel tool with a abrasive cutting wheel will slot them pretty quick.  The heads will mount better with the long taper.
