I would use an angle grinder with the appropriate cutting wheel.

Maybe depends how much you're gonna cut. For modest amount, I've used
circ saw w metal cutting blade- if you do, wear goggles and long
sleeves- it's a sparkly job.

I agree, have done it this way for a modest job. Had to do it after dark,
made some pretty fireworks.

I've preferred the angle grinder with cutoff wheel myself. It's much
easier to handle than a circular saw. If you had only one or two
pieces, go with the sawzall (safer than a circ-saw). If you have more
than a couple, use the angle grinder - or circular saw if you don't
have the grinder (though a cheap one can usually be found at Harbor
Freight for $25 or so).

You only need to cut about half way through the rebar, then you'll be
able to break it off by bending the rebar at the cut. I cut over 240
pieces this way with a hacksaw and I only went through 2 blades. Hope
this helps.
