    Thanks for the question, Bear.
    If you have any power saws(miter saw, circular saw) you can usually get metal cutting blades for those. I have metal blades for both and they work fairly well. A 10" miter saw I've used the same blade for years, but steadily cutting 3 or 4 inch pipe it wouldn't last as long
