I would think it would be fine, the impact. The way I learned it smacking the scrench with the bar was the 'sudden' impact up against the compression stroke would break the clutch free. It worked quite well on the old outboard clutch style huskys.

Sounds like a real bear. I used to just whack my clutches off with the bar against the 'scrench'. How I did it in the bush anyways just against the compression. That grew old as the saw grew old though and I eventually ended up with a metal piston stop and have used it for years with no issue.
