Cut Snips

How to cut thin metal?
I don’t have time to go get a hacksaw or snips or anything, unless we have some laying around, i wouldn’t know what they look like. Im trying to cut a 2 inch long metal tub from a pen about 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch shorter. It’s extremely thin metal but quite tough. I’ve already tried a dull pocket knife and it just scratches it
tin snips or a tubing cutter are the tool for the job, but if those aren’t available you could try to score the metal with your knife and then bend the tube back and forth to break it at that point. The problem with this is that you will probably kink the tube shut and that may be of no use to you depending on what you plan to do with it.
