An assembly to cut a hollow piling has a pressurized hydraulic fluid supply force to cut through a piling; a housing having a cavity to receive the hydraulic fluid, the housing having at least one cylinder wall; at least one piston assembly slidably disposed within the at least one cylinder wall configured to extend from the at least one cylinder wall in response to the introduction of pressurized hydraulic fluid into the housing cavity; a blade attached at a radially distal end of the piston assembly, whereby as the blade extends, a cutting force is applied to an encountered piling wall; wherein the blade edges are stepped/shingled on the upper and lower surface to allow overlapping of the blades when the blades are retracted. Spacers extend to a diameter equal to or beyond a blade tip diameter in its retracted position; and wherein the blade has a piercing point.
