I've used a reciprocating saw on both of mine. One of these.

With the correct blade it's a 10 second job and no sparks.

Be careful if you use an angle grinder, lethal if they catch which is quite likely on a tube!

A proper hacksaw should be fine i.e. not a junior hacksaw

I used an ancient recip saw for my Viper can, blade got stuck on the packing and snapped it!

Big beasty grinder finished the job!
