What type of monti?

Digi - For a rough break you could use some bone cutters or pliers to snap it. For a cleaner cut you could use a dremel.

Plating - For a rough break you could just snap the plate with your hand. For a cleaner cut you could use a dremel.

Encrusting - Chisel as mentioned above, but I like to use a dremel for it.

With the Dremel you should use the diamond bit cutting tool.
