Metal Reciprocating

Metal Reciprocating
Can you safely saw through a gas pipe?

The gas pipe that leads to the pool heater was capped off inside my house. Now I want to get rid of the pool heater but the pipes are rusted together. PB Blaster did not work. Can I saw through the metal gas pipe that leads to the pool heater? Is it safe? Will the friction cause a heat build-up / explosion (even though the gas supply was capped off)? Will a hand saw or reciprocating saw work?

If you are positive the pipe is disconnected from the gas supply, you can use whatever you want. I would stay away from using a torch since there could still be “some” trapped gas. A reciprocating saw will not generate enough heat to ignite natural gas.
