I could use a saw but it won't be a very straight cut

Sorry, I was being flippant, make up a flat jig out of 4 bits of wood and clamp it squarely on the post, then use it as a cutting guide.
In essence like this but it doesn't need to be as elaborate as that if a one off and can just be held in position with a clamp.
Or you can just buy something for the job eg https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/17443405...NvteojkzK4LdZ_ItOngRjuUeGTIm3NxUaAi7fEALw_wcB
Lots of ways to crack this egg, a sharp saw will help.
