what about if you make a saw out of it?
also, there are quite a few materials that are beyond the ability of regular anglegrinders to cut, but they are prohibitively costly

If you mean to saw itself, I guess heat buildup would cause it to blunt and bind.
Clickbait headline really, wouldn't mind some to play with though.

you could manufacture it into balls and make an indestructible bean bag

Carbon fibre and kevlar cover with a manganese steel zip.
A (large bubble size) electric guitar body would look awesome.

In the video, the blade goes into the metal
And from the text, once it is inside the metal - that's when it blunts the blade. So it seems to be soft under pressure, so probably wouldn't be able to saw. It's most likely flop apart.
For a lock, how thick would it have to be to protect the lock mechanism? Would you actually benefit weight-wise?

It blunts because the ceramic spheres are in two layers just below either surface
I doubt we’ll see it used in locks because it’s really, really expensive to make.
More likely it’ll be used for armour; foamed metals without ceramics are already pretty good against bullets.
