Is the section to be cut overhanging or sitting on units?
Silly omission on my part- it overhangs (there's a shelf unit bolted on under it, but that could come off to give a clear overhang.)
Then you can cut , handsaw will do most of it (sit on worktop to get good sawing position). Last couple of inches can be more difficult if you have tiles or upstand?

Thanks foxhole. She thinks I can do everything, but I don't want to make a mess of it and have it staring at me! I'm happy to give that a go. I'll cap it with one of those metal edged with a small lip to cover my sawing indiscretions.

If you can clamp a straight end to top it will help your saw cut stay straight .
For a change, I was ahead of the game, and had thought of that. I'll probably screw an edge to the waste side.
If you screw to waste edge you can only damage the finished edge.
