Make a few tight wraps of electrical tape in the same direction as the lay of the line around the spot where you'll make the cut. Use a fresh razor blade and cut in the middle of the electrical tape and then use a butane torch to seal the ends of the line back up. You can leave the electrical tape or peel it off after, but this method should yield factory like results if you don't have access to a proper hot knife.
