A piece of masking tape, two wrenches, and a good pair of dykes (knipex) will chomp through -3 braided cleanly. Otherwise, cut with a chop saw. If you really want to buy a "never get used again tool" you can buy from Earl's the little jobber that separates the braid from the inner liner so you can more easily insert the brass olive. It is only used on -3 and -4.
