First ask if you have to use the thin stuff. The Sch 40 is a little more forgiving.
But you won't cut that with a knife either. Can't be done.
You either saw it (the finer tooth the better) or use a tubing cutter. I use a tubing cutter and get very clean cuts but I don't cut anything bigger than an inch.
Holes. Drill bit or hole saw depending on size. Make sure you have the pipe held securely.
