In reply to r fizzle:
I once had the remains of a large Hex that someone had drilled out to make lighter - someone else dropped a rock on it to test it and ended up with 3 bits!
As stated, whether it's safe, or not, depends on how much metal they're removing and where from - if you're taking a bit off the "ends", then probably no big deal. I wouldn't take any away from the "faces", if you see what I mean.
I'd use a hand file, rather than a grinder, to do it.
