    I've got a nice little saw that does the trick very quickly - Amazon.com: Shark Corp 10-2312 12-Inch Carpentry Saw: Home Improvement

    I used to use a serrated kitchen knife before I had this handy saw.

    Yesterday night I thought if I cut a notch in one with a serrated knife & gave it a good muay thai knee it would do the job. Horrible idea, hurt like hell and made a huge mess. Just use a circular saw, don't try and go team impact on the coconut brick.

    Huh, missed this thread when it was posted. I Use a Compound Mitre Saw. It works really well for getting the amount you want off the brick while keeping your fingers safe.
