They might, but the ends will probably fray and you might squish the inner hose0

I find a hacksaw to be the best tool.The Frog: Lapierre Zesty 214 2010 - Upgraded - W.I.P0

Or as i suggested in another thread, a dremmel with a thin cutting disc nice clean, straight cuts.0

No question Stanley knife will give you the cleanest cut and will let you cut it straight which is just as important.
rest it on a block of wood when you cut it.0 -

Yep, not surprising that this is best, the 'proper' tools to cut brake hose often have a stanley blade as the cutter.0
