I use Adaptaflex Rigid Conduit Cutter 20mm | Screwfix.com

Work like a treat.

Edit. Unless you mean oval conduit, then ignore the above

I found the plastic handles snap on the plastic pipe cutter so went for a metal one somewhat like this works well and definitely avoids the rough edges (and gives a square cut).

I bought a set of pipe cutters when I was doing some plumbing,yes the dearer one are great but on the cheaper ones the ratchet slips when you use them on a harder plastic.If you know anyone who works for brewery tech services a set of PYTHON cutters do the job brilliantly.

Got given a free set my a plumber once when wiring a boiler house at a school. Look as cheap as anything and has served me well for the last 5 years.
