I find using a scalpel for that ideal, as it's sharp and controllable.
Bending the flex sharply helps too, as the sheath opens up as soon as the cut begins.
Two ways to do it,
1. Use a Stanley knife, doesn't matter how deep you cut, as you then pull the cores apart by hand a further 4 - 6 " and cut off and throw away the part you scored the copper on.
2. Sidecutters, straight down between the cores, but then still, pull it apart by hand and throw away the bit you chopped with the sidecutters.

Doesn't sound like flex to me.
