I was thinking that if I use a hacksaw, I could first screw on some old headset parts to act as a guide to get a square cut, and to help reform the threads when they were removed after cutting.
Sorry I missed this!
I've always just use a hacksaw and a one of
these but I'm sure you could do the same with a headset part to keep the saw blade straight.
