You can get those small handles for hacksaw blades
that just fit over one end-maybe you have to break the
blade in half also, or just break it and hold it tight
in your hand (without the handle) and pull it gently
across the top of the stud until it gets started-you
should be able to make it small enough to fit in there
and cut a groove for the screw driver, although it
will take a lot of sawing because you can't get a good
angle or pressure.
