1 a hacksaw never runs out of power, doesn't create sparks, doesn't make noise and is very easy to store along with their blades. in the battlefield armies carry hand tools not gay electric zip zap guns for this reason.
2 explosives are usually inert until the fuze activates, exactly why the dude removed the fuze first. without a fuze explosives can barely combust and as a matter of fact claymores have a "don't eat it you stupid fuck" warning because us troops would open them, take a bit of the filler out with a knife and then burn it to heat food which would lead to both gas and food poisonings.
