HSS cutoff blade in cutoff tool specific holder.
It is what I have, all I have used, and mas been satisfactory thus far.
I did use a slightly different method once on a large diameter chuck of Al, larger than I felt comfortable with the length of extension required with the cutoff tool. I cut as far as I could with the cutoff tool and finished with the lathe off and used my reciprocating saw. Messy but it worked.
