Default Cutting SS braid.

Bought a kit of parts to make up some custom brake hoses for the rear disc
brake conversion to my SD1. They are made by Goodridge.
The inners are thick plastic pipe with a SS braid. The fittings
compression types.

I thought the inner would slide out so the outer and inner could be
trimmed easily - but it appears not, unless I'm missing something. So how
do I trim the outer about 1/2" back? Teasing it out and clipping each
strand - as you might do with copper - is extremely time consuming.
