Make sure to get braided line cutters so the ends don't "fray" or you'll never get the fitting to slide on....
Braided line cutter or a Dremel with a cutoff wheel and fiberglass-impregnated packaging tape. I used the latter and it worked beautifully. Wrap the reinforced tape around the area you want to cut, then slice through it with the cutoff wheel. Unwrap the tape and install the AN connector. No fraying, no investment in a tool you'll use rarely if ever again.

Something you SHOULD invest in is AN wrenches so you don't mar the anodized finish. Definitely worth the few bucks extra if you're ordering from Summit anyway.
